Q

Explain primary fuel management

  • No. 1 and No. 4 always contain 500-1000# more fuel per tank than No. 2 and No. 3

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
