Hi Dave.
Sorry to be a pain but i think i have found an issue with the fuel tank gauges with regard to mains and aux being reversed and qty of all tanks being to much fuel at full load.
on the gauges in the VC the fwd gauges should read the main L/R tank quantity but only read the aux tanks .
According to info found for the real mosquito the fwd stub tanks between fuselage and engs , gauges read from 0 to 146 gal with full tanks max qty of 143 gal
and wing tanks outboard of engs gauges read from 0 to 69 with a max qty of 58 gals
and ctr wing tank should have max qty of 50 gal and ctr aux bombbay tank sould have max qty of 63 gal and optional drop tanks of 50 gal
and max range qouted as 2040 miles , i have only managed about 850nm with about 12% fuel left in tanks.
I know the aircraft is old now and dont expect any mods , would it be ok if i mess with the aircraft cfg file to try and get the fuel and range sorted to match info found .
regards Alan. B-)
