Its not a big deal - But I noticed something today with Fuel consumption and using time compression. I couldnt figure out why sometimes I would have tons of fuel leftover after a flight and sometimes I was right on the money (using the default A320). Maybe this has already been posted but I couldnt find it anywhere.
It appears to me using time compression does not effect fuel flow (IE Fuel Flow should be increased as well when using time compression). So on a long flight where I use high time compression the fuel flow is the same as if had not use time compression. Explains to me why on my long flights why I end up with so much more fuel left over then when I have shorter flights and dont use much time compression.
im doing a lot of long flight with the Longitude (over 3000nm) and I dont have too much fuel at destination.
seems ok to me.
Maybe its different from plane to plane
Hello
I just saw your topic and I have the same problem of consumption that does not decrease during the flight but I do not understand “increase the sim rate”?
Can you explain?thanks
Fuel consumption should also be speed up at the same rate as your time compression…if I am using 4x time compression fuel should be used at the same rate - not as if I didn’t have time compression on at all. Again I have no idea if this is legitimate but for me something seems off…If I am taking a short flight where I dont use time compression I have little fuel left over…If I start using time compression I end up with way more fuel then if I did not use at all.
well actually there is a problem with the consumption whether I increase the sim rate or not the level does not move.
I have a question about how to get back to the normal sim rate after increasing or decreasing the rate without doing nm/speed calculations.
