Important Fuel Level Considerations:
DO NOT RELY SOLELY ON THE FUEL LEVEL DISPLAYED ON THE CGR TO
DETERMINE THE FUEL LEVELS IN THE AIRCRAFT. The use of the CGR does not
eliminate or reduce the necessity for the pilot to use good flight planning, preflight and in-flight
techniques for managing fuel.
It is important the pilot adopt the practices listed below. If you are
not familiar with these techniques, contact the FAA to acquire proper training.
1. A copy of the Operating Manual must be in the aircraft at all times.
2. Flight Planning -
Always calculate the fuel requirement for each leg of a flight, including any
alternate plans for bad weather. Keep this information available in the aircraft during the
flight. Keep a chart of the published fuel flows for various flight/engine conditions in the
aircraft. Keep a chart of the measured fuel flows for various flights in the aircraft. Measured
fuel flows can be considerably different from published figures. This usually is due to old,
inaccurate engine instruments.
3. Preflight - Do not rely on the CGR to determine the fuel level in the fuel tanks. The
pilot must visually check/measure the fuel levels in the tanks before every takeoff.
Crosscheck the measured fuel levels with the displayed levels on the CGR. Also, crosscheck
these levels with the fuel requirements for the flight listed in your flight plan.
4. In Flight -
Make the
CGR
part of your normal instrument scan.
Crosscheck the fuel levels
displayed on the CGR with your flight plan at each leg of the flight or every 30 minutes
(whichever happens first). If there is a discrepancy, land the aircraft at the nearest airport and
verify the fuel levels.
Discrepancies should be taken seriously.
5. New Pilot or Owner of the Aircraft -
If there is a new pilot or owner of the aircraft, it is
the previous aircraft pilot/owner’s responsibility to insure the new pilot has read this
manual and is aware of any accuracy limitations and other important considerations.
All limitations and operating characteristics learned from operating the CGR must be
passed on to the new pilot/owner.
