When setting up your fuel inventory management system in FlightSpan™ Ops, you will select either Simple Management (total fuel quantity of each fuel type only) or Advanced Management (the number and type of fuel containers and how much fuel is in each container type). See the Fuel Management Setup documentation for details.
The fuel inventory for a runway or LZ is opened by tapping the fuel barrel icon in the lower right corner of that Runway or LZ Chart page.
If you are using the Simple fuel inventory tracking, continue reading; if you are using Advanced fuel inventory tracking, skip to the Advanced Fuel Audit documentation.
Simple Fuel Audit
To conduct an audit of the fuel on hand at a given location, switch to the Audit tab and tap the Fuel quantity button for the appropriate fuel type.
Note that the fuel units default to the aircraft type’s units. If you wish to display and use other units, tap the Fuel Units button.
Note: All fuel types set up in FlightSpan™ Ops will be displayed. If you need to add an additional fuel type, see the Aircraft Fuel documentation.
Enter the total quantity of fuel on hand and tap Done.
If another company has fuel at the cache and has given you access to their fuel, if you wish to inventory their fuel, tap the Non-Company Fuel button.
Select the Fuel Owner from the list.
If you change your mind, and do not wish to audit other company fuel after all, tap the Remove button.
Once fuel quantity has been entered for all fuel types and owners, tap Save/Close.
If total fuel quantity changes by more than 20%, there will be an audit warning to minimize the chances of inadvertent changes to the fuel inventory.
Select No to go back and correct the audit, or select Yes to save the audit.
Note: If you do not audit non-company fuel, no updates will be made to their fuel quantity.
When you save the audit, the window will close, but the next time you tap the fuel barrel icon, the Use/Drop tab will display the quantities entered on the Audit tab.
When your EFB is connected to the internet, the Audit will also be recorded in FlightSpan™ Ops.
