Majestic Dash Q8-400 Refuelling

Okay, followed your video as close I could.

1)Made sure there was no fuel in the tanks by ensuring there it was zero fuel
2) Called for the GSX Refuelling Truck
3)Selected 90% from the menu that flagged up.
4)Despite moving the timing slider off completely in the GSX Settings menu, this Refueller only took a mere 2-3 mins to refuel over 10000lbs, which is incredible. Must be the fastest Refuellers in the West ;D
5)And unlike in your video, no refuelling personnel stepped out
6) All done and dusted within 3 minutes.

So,what is going on?

10.000 lbs / 6.5 = 1538 Gallons

According to real world specs, that vehicle fuel pump can pump 450 gallons per minute:

So 3 minutes seems about right.

This is of course normal, you are not parked on a gate, the Fuel Hydrant won't come and the airplane is too small to use a Tanker, which is the other vehicle with a crew.

What else can I say, except a great big Thank You for a full and logical answer.

Now everything falls into place, because I used the same method i.e.25% on-board fuel, etc, to refuel the QualityWings RJ100, and it was as per your figures, 3-4 mins so fully acceptable.

Live and learn.

Umberto - what do we need to do to get the cool animation?  Fueling procedure works fine in terms of timing.  I get the little Texaco truck, the red digital gauge increments while it's refueling.  All very cool, but nobody gets out of the truck or hooks up hose or anything.

I have GSX 2...  what am I missing to get the animations?

Do you have GSX Level 2 Expansion installed?
