There is an aircraft type file for simbrief for the Fenix. You can get it at their Discord site. if you ask, I don't know where I downloaded it.

I always add about 0.5 or a little more extra fuel when making the flight plan.

Yeah, using this profile you will never depart before reaching your take-off min fuel. It usually only gives you 800 lbs of gas to play with, and running the APU during pre-flight (if GPU not available) will usually burn most of that, with engine start burning the rest.

Also you'll be on final approach with enough fuel for 1 go around before you need to divert. The simbrief profile really does make you feel like a real airline Captain, lol!

Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.

Yeah, I have made a couple of landings were the Fenix was telling me " Land ASAP, low fuel"...
