| This fuel timer program is one of the best cockpit aids I've come across lately and it's so easy to use. It literally reduces the time spent inside the cockpit from minutes to mere seconds doing fuel computations. In the environment I fly in, that's really important. You can use it several ways. I found that I can set up with a specific fuel amount and write in an amount that I anticipate stopping at and hit "start". When the aircraft fuel amount is equal to the "end" amount, I simply tap "now" and my computations are done and to whatever reserve time I set. Thanks, you've made my job a lot easier. |
