My Fuel Tanks are Allways Full!!!

[Guest Rizzibird]

Let's say that I set all fuel tanks to 30%. Then I go back to the panel and after second or two fuel jumps again back to 100% (full). Has anybody faced that problem already?Nejc

Nejc,There are 2 possibilities that I know of. First check under Menu/aircraft/realizim and make sure "unlimited fuel" is not checked. Secondly, if you are parked too close to a fuel pump the tanks will fill up. In FS98 and I believe in FS2000 you had to be inside the yellow rectangle where the fuel pump is located and stopped dead but I've noticed that in FS2002 all you have to do is taxi slowly past one of these fuel islands and the fuel tanks will automaticly fill without even entering the yellow rectangle. I don't know if this is true at all airports but I always avoid them.

I wish they'd get rid of those all together. I've run into this several times, and didn't notice until it was too late. At some airports your tanks fill up as soon as you touch down.
