  1. Hi, guys, me again,I've been reading the manuals a lot about this issue (have a little free time to do it), and must post something next few days summing up the many things i've learned.But, definitly, using the MCDU tu fuel the aircraft, and not only the load manager (don't laugh about my newbieness), is the core of the question.Best regards for posts and comments,
  2. By doing this, it will automatically distribute fuel among the tanks to keep CG inside the limits during all the flight?Thanks for your comment and help!
  3. Hello, captains,After having frozen the flight for a while, thinking what to do, I decided to proceed the flight that way, to see what happens. Have been monitoring the CG via SD-Fuel page for twenty minutes, and it has been growing to 31.7, when a message SET FUEL TO MANUAL appeared.Then, intuitively, I changed the system to manual and turned on TRANS switches in the tanks 1 and 3, after the FILL switch in the tank 2, then... the fuel started to be transferred from wing tanks to central tank. In 5 minutes, the CG decreased to 30.3 or something, i returned the fuel system to AUTO and could proceed my flight with no other issue.Don't know if this is what you, guys, meant with "ballast fuel", but the fact is that it has worked, without any add of fuel, only managing the distribution of what I had loaded.Finally, noted down the tip about ZFWCG, will take care next time.Best regards to you, Jonathan and Tigh!Fernando Santos (SSTO).
  4. Hi everyone, new here!Flying a fictional flight SAEZ-SBGR with MD11, prepared the bird with 60000lbs of fuel.After all, got a TOCG of 31.3 and a ZFWCG 27,8. All inside the limits, though TOGW limiar.Well, took off greately, but soon, still during SID the ambar message CG OUT OF LIMIT appeared.There is fuel only in tanks 1, 2, 3. Aux and tail tanks are empty.Have two questions:1) How to deal with this issue in flight?2) How to prevent this issue in next flight plannings?Sorry for eventually bad english. Thanks for any help!Fernando Santos SSTO.
  5. Hi everyone,New here. Sorry for eventually bad english. I would suggest the i5 2500k processor (oc to 4.7+ghz) and GTX 560Ti graphics card to save money.The DDR3 must be 1.600Mhz.Cheers,Fernando Santos (SBPA).
