Q

Explain primary fuel management

A
  • No. 1 and No. 4 always contain 500-1000# more fuel per tank than No. 2 and No. 3
    -No less than 7060# in No. 1 and No. 4 and no less than 6410# in No. 2 and No. 3 when externals contain usable fuel

Q

Explain alternate enroute fuel management

A

Used to maximize weight in outboard tanks during long transit legs, potentially extending airframe service life

-When external/aux contains usable fuel, No. 1/4 are kept at max and contain 500-1000# more than No. 2/3
-Once external/aux empty, use No. 2/3 down to 1520, then use 1/4 down to 1520
-Once all tanks at 1520#, go tank-to engine

Q

Explain secondary fuel management

A

Any fuel management that fails to meet primary or alternate enroute

This will occur when there is usable fuel in the external tanks and the main tanks are partly filled to less than 26,940#

An extreme deviation is operation with No. 1 and No. 4 empty
