In real life, with all pumps on and valves open, the externals and aux's would empty first due to their higher pump pressures (28-40 psi) over the main tanks (15-24 psi). Primary fuel management dictates burning the aux's first then the external before using fuel from the mains. This helps decrease the lifestress on the airframe.
but it is a sim and pretty darn accurate overall... |
