SG of fuel and fuel distribution
The aircraft i fly (airbus) has a fuel distribution chart corresponding to a sg of 0.785
Now obviously when the sg is higher, the litres of fuel required to make up the weight of fuel is less.
We give our fuel order in tonnes.
So if we order 20T @ sg 0.785, we get about 25480L
And if we order 20T @ sg 0.805 we get about 24800L
Hence a difference of about 700L
How would a higher sg affect the fuel distribution?
thanks in advance
