Smartcars Pirep fuel incorrect in Log file

Recommended Posts

We are using smartCars with phpvms but when the Pilot completes his flight and submits his Pirep to our VA the fuel burn figures are way out . I contacted the company that produces the software and they inform me that it uses lbs,feet,knots and the VA controls the rest of the figues. In the pilot log file they are showing aircraft weight in kg but everything else is showing in ibs,ft,kts ,and on completion of flight says I landed in xxxx ft with xxxxx kg in fuel. I ahve looked on other VA that use smartCars and there pireeps are showing no kg,etc at all in ther log files.

This tends to make me think it is a setting in phpVMS .

Hope someone can help me with this

In your local.config.php file make sure the following settings are correct.

Config::Set('CARGO_UNITS', 'lbs');
Config::Set('WeightUnit', '1');   # 0=Kg 1=lbs
Config::Set('DistanceUnit', '2');   # 0=KM 1= Miles 2=NMiles
Config::Set('SpeedUnit', '1');   # 0=Km/H 1=Kts
Config::Set('AltUnit', '1');   # 0=Meter 1=Feet
Config::Set('LiquidUnit', '1');   # 0=liter 1=gal 2=kg 3=lbs
