Can’t repro. I fly both PC-12 and PC-24 exclusively with no Skip-Tos during VIP Charter and Medevac missions, and have gone well below half tanks and safely completed the mission.

I have to agree with Casual Click. I fly the same without any issues. Right down to 20 mins of fuel left. Very strange issue. I hope you get it resolved.

This just happened to me in the king air - literally chugging along at cruise about to descend, 20% fuel under AP (sim rate increased) and it just flipped out (only way to describe it) and plummeted at -24k feet per minute, no acceleration - stayed at 200kt.

I should have screen captured it in retrospect.

I hope they fix this model, it seems like it should be nice, but I’ve unfortunately spent a bunch of time in game earning credits to buy it, and it’s an unfinished, disgraceful mess, especially given the limited number of aircraft that can be used in career mode.

It has left such a foul taste I’m considering abandoning the game entirely cause I don’t have this free time to just waste.
