Hey all,

Just wondering how do i refuel at the fuel pumps at airports?

Cheers.
Echo.

Just taxi really close to the pump and stop. Sometimes it will work, other times you can't get close enough and you have to do the Aircraft/Fuel menu thing.

simply park up right next to the pump, and your tanks will gradually fill; once your happy with the amount of fuel you've got, just taxi away, simple as that  :)

ah, that simple a? Well cheers you guys.

yes that simple

You must be at a complet stop. some airplaine move foward when idle and parking break on. lean the mixture or stop the engine.

there is a easier method to refuel assign a button on your joy stick you can even use this method in mid flight. I use the trigger button to refuel with.
A trick I learned while flying last years BOTA.

yeah best to shut down your engines (ive made engine autoshutdown ctrl+s), make sure your right next to the fuel pump, watch your fuel gauges, when their full, just taxi away

I must admit i prefer the old yellow square instead of these new fuel bowsers. Much easier to use and to find as well
