744 Fuel leak and Fuel Flow

I think it's good to keep a running tab on EXPECTED fuel remaining (totalizer) and ACTUAL fuel remaining (via fuel flow minus start figure) at regular intervals (hourly) and also critical points of flight before proceeding ! Also a visual check from around D4 if you suspect you have a leak or can't reconcile your fuel figures in flight. Gee, Flight Engineers are good for something !
