Fuel Dumping

Post by cmdrnmartin » Sat May 13, 2006 3:42 pm

WIth all the whining that goes on about fuel, I guess this is sort of a single voice in a crowd, but it's important.

Several times I have miscalculated or misentered the amount of fuel I needed. At least six, and I know my landing gear will crap out on me if I try to land the planes this heavy. Not to mention the approach speed approaching metoric speeds. So, in keepig with a desire for good piloting skill, could we dump fuel through the client (not add more, but dump) Especially wih the failure system, this is important, as taking off fully loaded for Japan could turn into a disaster if you have to land with 200 000lbs of fuel in the tanks because one of your engines blew. And no I can t keep going, 777, 2 engines, ETOPS means I NEED to land.

Anyways, fuel dump system would be TEH awesome
