I am an Aircraft Electrician on the Hamburg FAL forA318, A319 And A321
At the moment we have a serious problem with Cadensicons that nobody can seem to put the finger on.
In a nut shell on fuel gauging test the fuel Density readings between the Right, Center & Left wing tanks can very within 0.005- 0.015 on the CFDS.
Our tolorence for sale to the customer is 0.004 between the readings.
Can any of you pilots shed light on this with regards to the readings you see in operation and the tolorence between them.
The supplier tells us there are no fault found on the unit when rejected.
