Whenever a fuel measuring stick check is required to verify the fuel uplifted / fuel quantity inside the tank due to MEL applied, Fuel Measuring Stick Manual has to be used. It is quite time consuming to look up for correct fuel quantity value using this manual and human error might occurs.
To reduce the inconvenience caused, Boeing has released an iPad app, Boeing FMSM, to calculate fuel quantity using the fuel measuring sticks. The Boeing FMSM app is an electronic version of the referenced FMSM available in MyBoeingFleet. The Boeing FMSM app performs all the calculations and table lookups. The app can perform two different functions:
Identify the fuel sticks to be checked for a given fuel load
Calculate the fuel quantity for a given fuel stick reading
