Good morning everyone,
I have a question about the fuel management for the Boeing 747-8 on Xbox.
Do you know if we can transfer the fuel from reserve 1 and 4 to the mains tanks ?
Good morning everyone,

Maybe I’m missing something, there are no reserve 1 and 4 tanks on the 747 in my sim.
Sorry I wanted to say reserve 1 and 2 to the mains tanks
OK, I take it you mean reserve 2 and 3.
It is actually pretty easy, but I can’t say I’ve tried it in this sim.
The key to remember is that you aren’t filling the other tanks, rather burning from the reserve, and not using the main(s).
Make sure the fuel pumps under the words OVRD are on. Ensure the crossfeed valves (two are guarded) to the tank(s) that are low are open.
Shut down the pump(s) for the low tanks.
If you are trying to balance the weight, use this config until you have burned the higher tank down.
Ok thank you very much for the advice. I’m gonna a try to do it on my next flight.
Have a good day @TheSevenflyer
