No in flight refueling allowed / pmdg 777

[50joe]

I was wondering what you all were doing to use the pmdg 777 with fs passengers? I try to do the usual setup as outlined in these FAQ (which works perfectly with my pmdg 737) but as soon as I am
airborne fs passengers gives me the warning about no in flight refueling allowed. I even have fspassengers set to ignore fuel / weights.
When I set the fuel in the fmc, and start fs passengers the dialogue box shows the same fuel weight I just put into the fmc so I can't figure out what the issue is, anyone have the same problem?

I always set the initial fuel load in the FMC based on the flight route (let's say 90,000 lbs of fuel), and set payload to empty in the FMC as well. I
then put the sim in windowed mode, load paxs via FsP, open the the FMC again and load another 100 or 200 lbs of fuel in the FMC. Once this happens,
the FsP fuel dialogue will appear. Close it out and go back to full screen mode. From there you should be able to continue a flight without the fuel
dialogue appearing again. This works best for me since I have to put the sim in windowed mode in order to access my VA's web site prior to starting a
flight. You may be able to get by without going into the windowed mode, but the most important part is to add a little bit of fuel AFTER loading paxs
and clear out the fuel message before leaving the gate.

Thanks! I'll give that a whirl later today

Did it work out for you?

Can't agree with Joeflyer more...

P.S. In fact, not only PMDG777 but all the addon planes with sorta complicated fuel system trigger this window such as PMDG747/PMDG
MD11/FSL Concorde and so on.... to deal with them just perform the same operations above :-)

I am using the PMDG 737-800/900 and only now I'm getting the same thing as you guys. I never had that problem before. It halts my flight and appears
as though the screen froze and I have to press CTRL/ALT/DEL to get to the message pop-up on the fuel to close it. It's frustrating!

It's the same process for the 737 as it is for the 777 before loading paxs. If you follow the process you shouldn't see the fuel screen during flight
at all.
