Hi,

what is the reason behind the fuel system sequence switch?

The manual says „lisse“ is for clean aircraft, and „bidons“ is for external tanks config.

However in the actual fuel tank sequence order listed, both switch positions still seem to use external tanks first anyway and differ only in the sequence the various internal fuel tanks are used.

Is it only Center of gravity optimisation ? Or what is the „lisse“ position for if it still uses external tanks? 
 

regards

Yes, The aircraft has a total of 9 internal fuel tanks, and capability for carrying 
up to 3 external tanks. This switch allow variations in the center of gravity 
to be minimized, depending on if you are carrying external fuel or not.
