Time-jump kills total fuel?

[B747-400]

Hi Hardy,

testing some routes here, using time-jump to save time.

Following behavior:
After TO in OMDB, I jump to DB570 or to T/C (it makes no difference) ... immediately, the Total fuel qty drops to 2. Right after loading the .situ, it's about 26817 kgs.

Any idea why? The .situ file with situation after TO is below!

THX and regards
Hans

Hi Hans,

you have a "FUEL DISAGREE - PROG 2".
CALC fuel is 0.0.

Time jump function uses CALC as the current reference, and then subtracts the jump difference, and then copies the result to the physical quantity which the totalizer's sensors will sense. CALC is already zero before you even jump. It's not a time jump problem; it's an error somewhere in your preflight process.

Do you use a special external software to set up your initial fuel?

Hardy,

your totally right ... no idea how I managed to get this val to zero 
The original situation I copied from, says 28.0KG CALC!

I think it's error 999 = change operator 

No external program, just some math.

Thx alot for your hint!

Cheers
Hans
