The G3 doesn’t measure level, but instead measures only fuel flow rate. The G3 totalizes the rate information to account for fuel used. If you know how much fuel you started with and how much you have used you can figure fuel remaining by simple subtraction. The pilot must supply an accurate starting fuel level for this subtraction to produce the correct fuel remaining result. Should the pilot overstate the fuel quantity on board, the G3 will dangerously overstate the fuel remaining and the endurance time as well. The pilot must be careful and diligent when setting the fuel on board.

Getting the correct fuel total on board is in many cases pretty easy. If you fill up prior to takeoff the number is obviously the total available on board. If you partially fill a known configuration (say tips empty) then the total is easy to calculate. If you partially fill fuel tanks or add an accurately know quantity to a poorly known original value - errors will abound. Unaccounted fuel loss from leakage, fuel vent overflow or theft will of course produce erroneous results.

 

So be careful and the G3 will deliver safe, reliable, and convenient fuel information.

 

But be sure to cross reference the information on the primary fuel quantity gauges. Never trust a single source of fuel information when you have two on board.

Fuel exhaustion still ranks highly among accident causes.

There is no excuse for this - don’t let your engine stop until you’re parked.
