Airbus339 129 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Hello, I noticed this strange issue today with the IAE A319. Here is a picture of the A319 on the ground with 7700KG of fuel on board (checked also with the fsx weights option) Everything seems to be normal, but once on the cruise as you can see on the screenshot above the sum between the fuel burn and the fuel on board doesn't match: there's a 1500kg discrepancy. The discrepancy slightly increased during the flight. Furthermore the A319 burned much less fuel than it was supposed to do (3900KG effectively burned, 4700KG planned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airbus339 129 Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 I add that I've made 4 flights with the A318 and I didn't notice this issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awirOn 4 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I experienced the same (A319, IAE). On blocks I had about 7800kgs and while climbing there were 5860kgs left (system display said 760+770 burned). Are there any informations you need besides this?

Airbus339 129 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Glad I'm not the only one. In the mean time I'm doing a fresh reinstall to see if the issue could be solved in this way. This afternoon I will do more tests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emi 5161 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 For the IAE we're working on it and should have a fix soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airbus339 129 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 For the IAE we're working on it and should have a fix soon. So, do you conferm is it a bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted September 28, 2014 Aerosoft Share Posted September 28, 2014 If there will be a fix it's an certified issue (we hate the b word, lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airbus339 129 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ok. I ask this because after a clean installation the issue is still there and the discrepancy increases as the flight goes on. Well... I hope for a fix, as in this moment the aircraft is not able to fly correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airbus339 129 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 If you need more details, the fuel "disappeared" is about 1000KG per hour of flight for IAE A319. Tomorrow will test the CFM Airbus, but this doesn't seem to have a problem as well as the A318 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emi 5161 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 We now believe we may have found the issue and have a possible fix for it. The fix is currently being tested and if everything works out fine it should be available with the next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airbus339 129 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Just to conferm that the A319 CFM is not affected by this issue: no fuel disappearance and fuel burn matches exacly what planned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
