Hello to our PMDG MD11 pilots. Maybe you know .....
Is it possible to transfer fuel to the upper or lower aux tanks inflight to bring the CG back into a limit if it becomes out of the limit? The transfer must come from tank 1,2,3.
I could not figure out if this is possible or not.
Cheers Tom
 
Hi Tom...

I found here the PMDG MD11 Flight Crew Operating Manual where is a description how the fuel management works.

Have a nice weekend...

Hi Ramon,
yes I read it several times but it does not say anything if the transfer from the main tanks to aux tanks is possible in case CG is out of limit inflight.
As the config tool of the PMDGMD11 is very limited a correct fuel filling seems not to be possible so that the CG will stay in the limits the whole flight.

Cheers Tom
 
Hi Tom...

I've tested it out myself with the MD11 how the fuel transfer works.
I found out that the transfer goes only one way.
The transfer goes from Tail Tank to Aux-Tank L/R and then from there to Main-Tanks 1/2/3
(manual and automatic).
The other way round is not possible.

Have a nice Sunday... ;)
