I don't think that training flights have any effect on the airline. Your budget/reputation/aircraft status/fuel levels remain the same.

Hi,

If you check your finances you will see that there has been no charge for the fuel.

Flynet never charged for fuel and your FSAirlines flight you just reported hasn't charged for fuel. In FlyNET the fuel stayed on your aircraft after a training flight and could be used as an advantage/cheat to do a quick refuel flight to tank the aircraft free of charge and then do a revenue flight with that free fuel. Looks like this has been nipped in the bud to stop that unfair advantage/cheat and the fuel isn't left after a training flight. Those pilots that used this advantage will have to pay for all their fuel from now on.

I again faced to missing fuel problem; this is the second flight I have experienced this strange problem! I flew an A330-200 for Simorgh Air enroute RKSI-OIIE. I tanked the aircraft at Seoul exactly 49,000 kg; when I landed the aircraft at IKA/OIIE it was about 14% fuel remained in aircraft but after ending flight I surprisingly saw that it was exactly 49,000 kg of fuel recorded as block fuel!!! I'm using the v1.0.3 update of client in FS9. I hope the problem will be solved in the next update.

Hi,

It is most likely a problem with your particular aircraft you are using in the simulator. If you post here what aircraft you are using, someone may be able to help you.

Apologies, I missed that in your post above. Hopefully if someone else uses same aircraft they can advise if they are having the same problem

I have the exact same problem with ALL my a/c. after completing the flight it simply zeroes the fuel tanked in the a/c !
imagine the dissapointement after just fully refueling the 747...
I market 2 flights like this for review, but this problem has to be fixed within the client perminantly..

till then.. I take it easy, with the C172 or ATR.. losing the fuel there is bearable.

Jonathan, I have to say that it must be some addon that you're using or some setting you have in your FS that is causing the problem. This problem is not sourced from the client or any of its interactions with Flightsim. The only reason I say that is because if it was a client issue, everyone would be experiencing the problem.

While I don't know exactly how the penalty is triggered. If he has a fuel dump selector on his plane, it could dump all of his fuel and avoid the penalty for running out of fuel.
