Fuel loads

[Mike Busutil]

It would be nice if we were able to choose how much fuel we could load into each of the aircraft's fuel tanks other than just a total percent.

 

Example: The P-51 has wing tanks and a fuselage tank with the option for wing mounted drop tanks.

 

As it is currently, we can not choose to fill the left drop tank with 10% fuel capacity and the right drop tank with 60% capacity.

 

Or fuel only in the fuselage tank and not in the wings :D

 

Anyone else feel this would be a nice option to have? Or am I looking for too much? : Thumbup:

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

Forgive my ignorance... what type of situation would you encounter such a configuration?

 

I'm content with the current arrangement but perhaps there's an aspect I'm not considering?

On FSX you can configure single tanks. And in some situations, you can only load some fuel tanks and remaind empty others

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Asymmetric loading is a good example.

A possible fuel imbalance...
