When I land at an airport that is marked for fuel and should have fuel and I go to the gas pump, when I can find it, the fuel symbol comes up in the HUD but no gas is added to the plane.
Anybody else experience this?
Any solutions?

Hello George,
There are some bugs in the game, and that is one of them. I too have found some airports that should have fuel available but don't.
Best regards. Luis

The program is very buggy indeed. Hacking around I discovered that if I exited Free Flight, went to the hangar, looked in the upper right corner there was a fuel nozzle icon. Clicking on that opened a window where I could draw a bar across and bring the tank up to 100%. It seems to work at all airports whether marked for fuel or not. Apparently there is a virtual can of gas and a siphon hose. Then go back to Free Flight and click Fly. Question not the ways of MS.

Hi George,,unfortunately, and unlike FS9 ,or FSX,"FLIGHT" will never have the chance to evolve!.We all know all new Flight Sims have issues!..however "FLIGHT" has something the other Sims do not,and that is superior scenery. Alaska,and Hawaii are a joy to fly. low slow VFR,none much better..its too bad,for it promised much...However I still as always will enjoy it is as I Enjoy FS9,and FSX.All give much pleasure and fun!..So Fill up when ya can, Random,Reliable Fuel stops in the Bush are always questionable...Fuel must be cached in your areas of flight! AS REAL AS IT CAN GET!!...Have fun George!! Rare Nice day In August in Alaska!

It really all depends on the user. Somebody who wants to make believe that he is really flying will not fill the tank in the Hangar area and will plan his flights carefully so as to never end up with empty tanks. Others who don't take it so seriously will not mind getting their full tanks wherever they can. ;D
But, compared to other versions of FS, Flight is relatively bug free. There are really only minor issues like this.
Best regards. Luis
