msfs-2024 I noticed an issue in the Fuel & Payload UI screen.
My sim uses the hybrid units of measurement.
As shown in the screenshot, I completely emptied the 747‑8i (no passengers, no fuel, no baggage). The aircraft’s empty weight is 220.128 kg, but the total mass displayed in the configuration screen is 485.300 kg, which corresponds exactly to the same value expressed in pounds.
This suggests a UI bug: the value shown in kilograms is actually the pound value, without proper unit conversion.
The UI should either display the correct mass in kilograms (220,128 kg in this case) or switch the unit to pounds if that’s the intended value.

Can replicate the issue. Does not seem specific to the 747 (if you want to test with other aircraft) but more likely a conversion issue for any aircraft on the “Fuel and payload” screen, “Total Mass” when Hybrid or Metric are used, weight is not converted to kgs even if the unit of measure says “kgs”. “Fuel” section is not affected.
I would recommend to create a report in the Bug Reporting Hub > Aircraft & Systems using the provided template and filling in all required fields.
Yep this issue occurs on every plane on career, I mostly fly airbus, and put everything in kilo (in the game settings, EFB and the plane itself) and the only thing I have to convert from lbs to kgs is the fuel in this interface
