744 - more accurate volume readings - how are you measuring that? Not against the dip-sticks I hope.
what i meant is fuel height from capacitors thus volume.

to elaborate, on the b744, when we get an 'imbalance', when we check the CMC, it's usually the SG that 'causes' the imbalance. whereas, on the b777, when we check the CMC, SG of both tanks are usually the same, the variance is with the fuel height thus volume.
