This is really a continuation of the thread I started re the Hawker Hurricane VC panel lighting.

I see a Fuel Selector on the left side of the cockpit. You can set which fuel tanks are being accessed, I think. On the front dash panel, on the right, there's a Fuel Gauge. Above this is a indicator that points to either the Center, Port or STRB tanks. The latter is un-clickable on my installation. It does change if I change the Fuel Selector on the side of the cockpit.

However, the Fuel Gauge showing remaining fuel doesn't seem to change at all with this. Above it there is a button that appears to just turn the gauge on or off.

So the Fuel Gauge seems to only show what is in the Center fuel tank. I can live with that, but I'm wondering if that is the way this Just Flight model is set up??
