I've seen the fuel flow meter (2D panel on) go *negative* at supersonic speed and extremely high G turns (like 50G and beyond) at low altitude. It actually fills up the tank. ;) So it do seem to be some sort of type/typecast mixup. (Magically add mass at speed and you increase kinetic energy.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
