Question about fuel flow gauges when using pounds

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

When using pounds, in cruise the fuel flow gauges show something in the region of 53.5 or something around that. But then on the gauge, it says just above 'x1000' which would be 53,500lbs per hour! Is this a bug or should the text above the readout say 'x100' instead? With the decimal point two digits in, its 53.5.

 

If it was correct, it should be 5,350lbs per hour. Whats the story here?

The guage is correct in reference to the needle and the markings and the fuel flow simulates normally as expected.
I would agree that the numbered window displays incorrectly and should show 4.71 instead of 47.14 - using the image example below.
From images I can find of the L1011 fuel flow gauges, the decimal point is in the right place and seems like it has been coded incorrectly to show the number incorrectly.
