Love flying the Lear, but I'm a little confused about how one would monitor the amount of fuel one has onboard from the VC as in the real plane without having to call up the payload manager, which in my case doesn't work.

 

Okay, my apologies I found the switch and the fuel gauge on the center console which shows the amount of fuel remaining in each tank. Now to see if you can transfer fuel between tanks?

The engines are fed only from the wing tanks. The tip tanks drain into the wing tanks automatically. In flight you can transfer fuel between the fuselage and wing tanks, and can transfer fuel between the wing tanks. Interestingly, as I understand it the plane is fueled thru the tip tanks, which drain into the wing tanks from where it is transferred into the fuselage tank. The controls for transferring fuel are between the seats below the throttle pedestal, and you can watch the transfer using the Options pop-up.
