FSX Fuel/Payload Details not updating when Fuel Planner data is loaded.

[mathsman20 0]

I may have misunderstood the way the fuel/payload system works in the A318/9, but I have noticed that if you load fuel planner data using the right MCDU "Init Loadsheet" button (LSK6L) the data loads into the MCDU but the corresponding FSX "Fuel/Payload" menu is not updated to reflect those new figures. However, if you load using the "INSTANT" load button, the FSX fuel/payload menu is updated immediately with the loaded data. Is this a bug? I would have thought either method should have updated the FSX menu?

Same problem...

There is no problem/bug!

When you press "Init Loadsheet" the data will be visible in the MCDU, nothing gets loaded. When you initiate the load process by pressing Pax/Carga/Fuel or "instant..." then the load process starts.

Hi

Thanks for the reply. My reading of the instructions on Vol.6 page 34 under the heading "Init Loadsheet" seemed to imply that pressing the LOADSHEET button automatically loaded the payload and fuel into the aircraft, and that what followed on the next page were manual ways of doing it. Seems I am not the only one who interpreted it that way. My mistake!

Thanks

I'll check if that text needs to be rewritten, you do have a point.
