The fueling of the aircraft is based on density from the truck or fuel farm. Once you have the required dispatch fuel load density isn't a factor (in the real world).

Hi HSLD,

I new to computers, I could make up a doc of what I need in MWorks, but it would take to long to convert to Excel, if indeed that can be done, anyhow you have enlightened me re the density issue so its now only a matter of using the most common conversion stats in use around the industry, I have now got a fair idea, the lads at the forum thank you, and I thank you.

A privalage to comm with 777 pilot! Good luck in the future.

Berne...
