You're doing great Reggie! I never did get the hang of that one when it comes to fuel. I usually end up running out and having to make an emergency dead stick landing out in the middle of nowhere...
 
That's where flying the FSD Piaggio Avanti so much in the RTW comes in useful. You learn to fly that plane by Pounds Per Hour.

I actually took a little too much fuel on each of the legs between London and Rome and had to circle before landing to get down to MLW.

But the real pain is that the fuel tank labels in the Fuel and Payload screen does not match the labels in the flight engineer panel.

Since this aircraft will only use fuel from tank 1 or tank 2 on each side, remembering to move fuel between the center tanks to the tank 1 with the transfer switches is important. And to move fuel from tank 3 to tank 2. There is also a switch between using tank 1 and tank 2 on each side.

I think everyone has ended up with the engines shutting down due to no fuel in tank 1 or 2, and plenty of fuel in tank 3 or the center tanks.
