Hi all,
I want to make my flying more real.
I want to start using the fuel & payload opion, but don't know where to start, ie calculating the correct amount of fuel for my trip, with not to much and not to little, and also payload settings
Thanks
MB

I use this website...very accurate...

http://fuel.aerotexas.com/

It's kinda hard to understand but it will give you EFU (estimated fuel use) and RSV (reserves for about an hour) so you should have just enough to land.

It's right under the date and time on the right should look like this...
