MatthiasKNU 134 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Hello! Yesterday I have been flying my first flight with the PMDG QOSii 747-400F. I have prepared my flight like always using PFPX, but with the default-747-400F-Profile I got a lot too much fuel for my flight from ELLX to UBBB. The route was quite direct, with a ZFW of 260 tons. The fuel required calculated by PFPX was more than 150000 kg, weather used was AS16 real weather. Then I tried another 747-Profile (http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/files/file/3514-pfpx-boeing-747-400-performance-profiles-pack/), but that did not help, again the same required fuel. Afterwards I was flying to UBBB with 59000 kg of fuel, which Simbrief calculated. Today I wanted to try it again, the flight is UBBB to VHHH. I tried again a few profiles, even the 747-400BCF, 747-400ERF and 747-400F. Again I got a few warnings (exceeded MTOW and so on): Please login to display this image. (By the way, fuel required for this flight are around 90 t) Please login to display this image. With lowering the ZFW I could manage it to get a result of PFPX: Please login to display this image. The 747-400 (PAX Version) works properly. I think that a corrupt/wrong 747F Profile causes this issue, but it is nearly impossible to plan a flight with the 747F with PFPX... What can I do to get this working? Thank you in advance! Kind regards Matthias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 How are you adding the aircraft, by profile or template ? I certainly doubt a fuel difference of 60t planning the same route, weights, alternates and fuel policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthiasKNU 134 Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 I don't have a template for the 747F, so I only can add the aircraft by profile... Is there a template for the freighter version anywhere? Then I would try that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Can you post a snapshot of the General tab from the aircraft editor for the registration added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthiasKNU 134 Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Yes, of course: Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthiasKNU 134 Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Ok, I think I could solve this problem. I have reinstalled PFPX completly and added the 747F again, and now it seems to work normal! Thank you anyway for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
