Increasing range of IRIS Global Express XRS

[arfroese]

I love this IRIS Global Express XRS Easter Egg 2013. I join with others who are looking for good biz jets. Hard to find!
Can anyone help me with getting the realistic 6000 nm range on this Global Express? I know I need to add fuel tanks. How does one do that? Is there a place where I can get a aircraft.cfg file that has accurate fuel capacity?

Hi,

To increase the range, you can increase the fuel capacity in the aircraft.cfg file

EG: with a similar aircraft (I have not the IRIS) in red

[fuel]
LeftMain = 0.000, -4.000, 0.000, 900.000, 0.000
RightMain = 0.000, 4.000, 0.000, 900.000, 0.000
fuel_type = 2 //Fuel type: 1 = Avgas, 2 = JetA
number_of_tank_selectors = 1
electric_pump=0

remark: fuel quantity is limited so you can't increase the total load (Fuel + cargo + passengers + aircraft) more than max_gross_weight

[WEIGHT_AND_BALANCE]
max_gross_weight = 35800.000
empty_weight = 20735.000

Another way is to decrease the consumption

[GeneralEngineData]
engine_type = 1
Engine.0 = -13.000, -6.000, 2.000
Engine.1 = -13.000, 6.000, 2.000
fuel_flow_scalar = 1.000 // this line
min_throttle_limit=-0.250000

If you reduce fuel Flow Scalar, you reduce the comsumption

Thanks Phil, I'll give this a try.
