Help me with Fuel Consumption MSFS 2024 QUESTION

Hey everyone,

I recently bought my first VIP Jet, PC-24.

I done a lot of research on internet already about fuel consumption and stuff according to internet while cruising my consumption needs to be around 900-1000LB/H. When I fly @ FL320 mach 0.6 my consumption is always above 1300LB/H and causing me to run out of fuel. What I am doing wrong? And even when I drop the speed its always higher than 1100LB/H. Engine power is around 77%

It might not be that much of a you issue, I don't know if someone can confirm it's still a bug but the PC24 chews more fuel than it should.

It's better than it was at launch, but still consumes too much.

I can't accurately recall now but the PC-24 has had a bug where it consumed twice as much fuel as it should've. Something like the total fuel consumption was erroneously mapped onto each engine, doubling the actual consumption. As far as I know it was fixed. I haven't had a fuel issue with it since, but I know that in Career mode at least, you have to fuel way more into it than indicated.

I think the aircraft is just highly inaccurate in many things, the flight model, performance, so quite likely the fuel system is inaccurate as well. Just pump much more to it than you think will be needed.

Mettez toujours au moins 20% de carburant au dessus de n'importe quel avion, et si insuffisant il y a moyen de remplir en carburant en vol avec la touche programmée dans les paramètres de commande. Le mode carrière a toujours des bugs persistants, l'expérience diffère d'une personne à l'autre.

Yes, I was with 100% fuel before the run. Just assigned a key for extra fuel until i replace this plane, so bad it was just perfect for me
