Simbrief gave wrong Fuel Quantity

I created a Simbrief flightplan for the MSFS B747-8i from KOAK to KLAX.

Simbrief gave me a fuel quantity for that 1 hour flight of 15,000 Lbs. (less than 1% of the fuel tanks capacity).

As a result the aircraft ran out of fuel and crashed.

I have found that the fuel quantity should be at least 50,000 Lbs.to give a comfortable margin. (That is some 12% of the fuel tanks capacity.

I hope Simbrief can fix this bug.

Hi, you appear to have planned your recent flight using the B737-800 instead of the B747-8i.

Best regards,

Thank you. Note to self: be more careful using fingers to select options :flushed:
