Fueling the 777

Featured Replies

Hi, if this has been up before, I apologize for the post. But will the 777 have the same fueling as the MD11? Where we can select rather we would like to get it fueled up in a sec, or have a more realistic time of fueling, like in the real?

it has been discussed and PMDG never commented. to sum up the other post, most people said they wanted to see an instant fueling option, AND an MD11 style refueling option.

Ok, thanks FS737Pilot.

Worse case you can download a freeware program here on Avsim that can fuel your aircraft at a realistic rate. It's called fuel loader and can even run of a networked PC.

That wouldn't be a good idea, you're not supposed to fill the fuel via the FSX payload entries, but via the FMC.

I really hope for the MD11 style. I dont like the instant one on the NGX

I want the MD-11 style as well, I would let the jet fuel up while doing other preflight work.

Absolutely no problem using an external fuel loader if you know what your doing and use the correct fueling logic. PMDG's advice regarding only using the built in loader is to protect themselves from people screwing it up.

Who cares . . release the BEAST!

MD11 J41 747 NGX . . awaiting 777 !!!

I guess it will be the same as with the NGX. You will have to set the fuel via. the CDU.

 

With kind regards, Bogdan Misko.

What is the correct logic?

Probably you can try it. If nothing happens, feel free to do that.

I don't have the MD11, how is it different from the NGX? Is it because the NGX (Say you click FULL) it fills immediately? Is that what you guys are talking about?

Diego to fill the MD-11 you can fill it instantly or do an actual refill to a set quanity.
