Hi hossein,

1. Is this happened because of any sensors or FQI fault?
Ans = No.

2. If so, is there any relation between these faults with HIGH EGT and HIGH OIL PRESSURE?
Ans = No.

3. How do FOB,F.USED and F/F showed such a these things? And which one is the most trustable reference?
Ans = They all seem reasonably reliable and sensible. (How much APU fuel was used?)

4. And if so, why we've had heavy left wing?
Ans = When you had the fuel X feed open, the fuel will be delivered from the tank with the pump giving the highest fuel delivery pressure (in your case the right tank pump).

5. If this flight had more than 1 hour duration, what should we expect more?
Ans = The right pump would continue to deliver all the fuel to both engines until you did the fuel imbalance procedure, which would involve turning the lighter (RHS) pumps off.

6. Is refilling a quiet amount of center tank for short flights being necessary?
Ans = No. I often see about 50 kgs fuel remaining in centre tank.
