744 fuel loading

[dfish 1]

From the load manager I selected 200,000 pounds of fuel, yet when the aircraft loaded I only had 9,000 LBS. I used the FS fuel loader to load the correct fuel amount yet when I returned to the aircraft I still had only 9,000 LBS. Can I use the FS fuel planner with the 744?Dave F

>Can I use the FS fuel planner with the 744?No, you have to use one the PMDG fuel planners. There is the external load manager that also can configure the pax and cargo and from within flight simulator you can go to the PMDG menu -> Options -> Fuel and select the amount of fuel there./ Jesper

If you are in the cold and dark cockpit, be aware that the fuel pumps and cross feed pumps are turned on when you press the "APPLY" button.
