July 2, 200322 yr Hi guys,A couple of problems that I have been having with both the 600 and 700 series.Installed and loaded up yesterday and flew the first flight. During this flight I was able to load correct fuel loads into tanks.After the first flight was completed restarted FS and took the return flight. Here is when the problems started. I was unable to load equal ammounts of fuel into the tanks, by a large ammount. I was trying to load 8000lbs into left and right. FS would let me input this figure but as soon as I clicked ok and went back to panel view the right tank would immediately reduce to about 2500lbs (give the yellow inbalance warning). The exact same thing has happened today. Loaded 100% into left and right and 4000 into center and all is well with the exception of the left hand tank which is still dropping down to 2500lbs. Second problem I am having is with the APU. No matter what I do it will not shut off. I start the engines engine engine bleed, turn off APU bleed, when I click on the APU to stop it it clicks only in the possitive direction going to start first before coming back to the off position. After lift off during the climb and in the cruise it stays on. Also during cruise the low pressure light is on also.Look forward to any input on this matter, many thanksLiam
July 2, 200322 yr Firstly great aircraft guys, well done on such a stunning visual model and crisp panel artwork. The FDE is smooth as silk too. :-jumpyAnyway I had the same fuel loading problem after completing a flight, the left tank fuel quantity would not change no matter how much fuel I asked it to put in through the menu (C and R tanks filled just fine). I tried this with every combination of fuel selector position and fuel pumps / crossfeed to no avail.In the end I shut down FS and re-started it and it worked fine again.Also on my second trip the fuel started burning from the right tank only giving me an imbalance but once I crossfed from left tank to both engines, restored the balance and re-activated all wing pumps it worked fine again.Anyway don't get yourselves down with some of the negative comments on here you have produced an excellent plane which, with the manual and sids/stars, will be a real top-notch addon in the 767PIC category.Sure there are a few minor issues like the fuel and VNAV but these will be fixed folks, let's show the team some support for this fantastic creation!!Andy.(p.s. the animation on the airstairs is amazing!!)
