steelerboi Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Hi, Our v.a. uses custom kACARS and one of our pilots is struggling with a fuel issue, in that 99% of his PIREPs show 0kg fuel usage, even though the log itself shows correct take-off and landing fuel quantities in lbs. Very occasionally he will have a PIREP with the correctly calculated value in kg, but I'm at a loss to figure out why most show 0kg. PIREPs from all other pilots are spot on with the fuel usage the majority of the time, although sometimes I will see a report with a negative value, but there is no indication of midair refuel etc. In all the above situations, I can manually work out the use by subtracting the landing fuel value from the take-off value, and then convert to kg, but obviously this adds time to the processing of the reports, and I'd like to have the value populated correctly when the report is initially filed by the pilot. Has anyone had this happen to them or their pilots ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
