Rnaetsar Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Hi guys, Apologies if this has been covered before, just need a bit of help if that's okay. A pilot of mine today departed an airport with 160,000lbs of fuel, landed with 80,000lbs of fuel. The airline only gets charged for fuel used. So, he basically overfuelled his aircraft by 100% but only got charged for what he used. Is it possible to change the coding so he gets charged for the fuel he takes off with, not what he uses? That way, it will give the pilots more of an incentive to calculate their fuel properly. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 No I dont think that is possible, as it only takes in the fuel used, you would have to add extra fields and edit the algorithm to get that. It would be a lot of work, and possibly more work to the designer of your acars system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
