A350 Refueling-Boarding-EFB-GSX What is the correct sequence?

[mseder]

Hi

V1.0.7
I still haven't found out what is the best sequence of boarding and refueling the A350 using the build in GSX and GSX Load.
I usually try it this way
1 First enabling GSX in the OIS GROUND tab 
2 GROUND GSX Refuel request
3 LOADSHEET Load with GSX

By doing the above refueling is not performed.

Suggestions?

GSX usage with the A350 is badly documented and I have yet to find a sequence that works.

That is not necessary. Just request refuelling and boarding in GSX, then Fuel, Passengers and Cargo is added without any further action.

"Just request refuelling and boarding in GSX, then Fuel, Passengers and Cargo is added without any further action."

Yes that works but then the new functionality in v1.0.7 using the "load with GSX" choice is disregarded

Well suddenly it seems to work without any updates in between. Can't explain it.
I'll get back if it gets back

I think i may have found the issue....

- When selecting "LOAD WITH GSX" it only calls for the fuel truck if you have less fuel in the aircraft than what's on the flightplan. At that point, it will ask for refuel. 

- On the other hand, if the aircraft has more fuel than what;s shown on the flightplan, it will not call for refueling. 

This is what I have found. Hope this helps. Would be nice if the aircraft would resume with remaining fuel from previous flight. Right now i think it starts with 52T

Hello,

We've reworked the GSX refuelling logic with 1.0.8 (published 1 hr ago).
Please report whether you experience positive changes. 

As for fuel persistence from previous flight, I'm not entirely sure if this is possible but I'll forward the suggestion to the team 🙂

Passengers still loading before refueling and the refueling truck arrives, hooks up and does nothing. V1.0.8

It would be great if inibuilds can provide some kind of gsx settings required and quick step guide on how to use it.

A few questions and feedback for build 1.0.8 GSX integration.

1. Can you reevaluate having FOB starting at 1,100 pounds?  1,100 seems extremely low to simulate fuel remaining from a previous flight. 

2. What is the real-world sequence of events for first flight of the day aircraft loading and is GSX currently able to perform this in sequence?  I always start cold and dark and would like to follow the real-world aircraft loading process for this scenario. 

3. What are the various turn times for A350 ops (e.g. long haul, domestic, etc.)?  I'm trying to get the timing down for refueling and aircraft boarding accurate to my scheduled push time. Again, is GSX realistic with the loading times?

Ok, i understand the fuel persistance may not be able to be done....with that, is there a way to stop the fuel from dropping all the way down to 1100?

That way, GSX will refuel from what is currently in the tanks and not start from 1100. Seems no matter how much fuel is in the tanks, once you call for refuel, it drops the tanks to 1100 and starts from there. 
Thanks for the input.

Hi,

This is not the intended behaviour indeed. GSX refuelling should refuel on-top of whatever QTY of fuel is already present in the tanks. The team is aware 🙂

ahhhh ok, i see now. Its a bug. I appreciate the reply. I can work with it until its all updated. no worries. Its not a game change. Again, preciate the reply.
