jer029 7 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Flew the 550 today and the center tank ran out of fuel but the wing tanks each had about 4000 lbs of fuel in them. I don't recall having problem before the latest update. Perhaps I'm doing something incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuntaKinte 210 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 This process is correct. The centre tank is only used if the wing tank capacity for a planned flight is not sufficient. It is filled last during refueling and must be emptied first to reduce bending loads on the wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
