Excessively low fuel consumption

We shall use your suggestion for potential enhancements and new functionality. So, please be as detailed as you can.

Only one issue per thread so that others can easily see what has been reported.

It appears that in the simbrief generated fight plan the block fuel amount is excessively low for a B-787-800 (probably for all aircraft as well). A review of that computation should be revised.

Hi, this profile has been reported to be quite accurate over the years by other users.

Can you check that you’re using the same units both in SimBrief and in the simulator? Also check that you are using real-world weather and have loaded the same payload in the sim.

What aircraft/simulator are you using? It’s possible that the add-on you’re using has a different fuel burn, in which case you can try adjusting it for future flights using the Fuel Factor option.

Best regards,

Thanks for your reply. I did use actual average winds aloft from Simbrief.

I will do a few more tests to make sure. Initially, used higher fuel consumption but I corrected that.

Thanks again.
