Classic British Flight Sim

Hi Nigel,

I find it easiest to use either the stats page or DaveB's FSNavigator fuel settings to work out how much I need - plus the usual 'bit to be on the safe side'

DaveB's settings are in a sticky post here

The refuelling part of the Flynet client deals in kg by default (I think) so even though I'm a lbs and ozs man with Flynet I go metric


Rgds,

Colin

I'll have a look at converting kg to lb on the stats.
Could be fun.

Someone else gave us a heads up about this some time back...
A simple program that can convert anything to anything.

What a team C.B.F.S. has!! :dance:

Many thanks Dave extremely grateful and so will the wife be when she sees it!!

Would be good to see lbs on the stats as well Dave, I am sure that some old timers like myself prefer to use Imperial measurements as apposed to metric when it comes to refuelling.

Regards Nigel.

I think it works.
Old timers can now select 'lb' in the Unit box on the stats.
From then on all the screens should remember to display in 'lb', for that session anyway.

There's the occasional tonne (1000kg) displayed too & I'm not sure if that should be converted to old timer tons if we're displaying in lb.
What do you reckon?
It's easy to do, but I'm not sure if it needs to be long ton or short ton.
tonne * 1.102311 = short ton (tn)
OR
tonne * 0.9842065 = long ton

Anyone know?

Brilliant Dave......just brilliant!! :dance:

Can now just look at the Stats for a particular flight and know how much to load without spending too much on unnecessary fuel.

Many thanks again Dave.

Regards Nigel.

Very Nice David....

While you're at it you might take a peek at my request of converting the Flight Times (in the yellow columns) to HH:MM instead of decimal hours...?

Especially the Route Inquiry Page
