Can't seem to figure how or where to set F4E bingo fuel levels.

What am I missing? Any ideas?

 

The F-4E has a fixed Bingo ... When the sensor in Cell 2 detects a fuel weight of less than 1650 ±200 lbs, the FUEL LEVEL LOW warning will illuminate on the front cockpit telelight panel.

That´s not Bingo. Bingo and Joker Fuel will be monitored by the Pilot (Crew, but it´s a bit hard to see from the WSO Seat) by frequently checking the gauge. No help by the system.

Since the WSO in the Phantom can't see the fuel state, there isn't really any reason to setup "Bingo fuel" other then for yourself.

Jester will however roughly attempt to guesstimate your flying to periodically ask you for checking fuel state whenever he thinks it's probably about to go into the lower fuel levels.

In the future, when our mission planning tools are coming, there might be some form of Bingo planning. But as said, it's mostly for you, the pilot. As the WSO, and hence Jester, literally can't see the fuel state :)

Joker and Bingo for the mission are figured out during mission planning, briefed during the mission briefing, and written down on your lineup card. If you lose your lineup card you are SOL, cuz the jet won't know.
