7b seems better for RFP
Posted: Tue Jan 23, 2007 8:50 pm
Hi
Just tried fuelling, startup and climb in the RFP 742 with 7b (sorry no time to complete the flight tonight but I was keen to know whether she would play ball or not).
The 'compare' mode seems good now. There were no anomalies with engine start or with the fuel balance and the FOB reported by the client was within a few kg of that reported by the RFP fuel panel.
Unfortunately 'standard' fuelling mode doesn't work (I tried it and the aircraft fell over on stand with the right wing buried in the tarmac
) but as long as I have one fuelling mode I can use, I'm happy.
Thanks DaKurt for all you're doing. It must seem a thankless task at times.
Best regards
