Can we please have % as a unit of fuel measure, for W&B and fuel calculations, this would be very useful on a tablet.
On the AS355 Twin Squirrel helicopter, the fuel is represented as a % on the fuel gauges, 45% for the front tank and 55% for rear, giving a total of 100% of the useable contents 730 litres.
So that when setting up the Aircraft Profile, we could state the capacity as either volume or mass, and then also specify what percentage each tank is. Eg front tank 330 litres (45%), rear tank 400 litres (55%). Then, when we do our fuel planning say on the W&B section, we just enter the % figures for each tank, without having to do any manual conversions.
Thanks
