Basic Operation

FUEL FLOW

If the KMD 250 is installed in
conjunction with a fuel flow
monitor, the actual fuel flow
and estimated fuel usage cal-
culations will be displayed in
white as in Figure 1-107. This
will allow the KMD 250 to cal-
culate the fuel flow for each leg
of the flight plan based on cur-
rent ground speed. If no fuel
flow monitor is used, the value
may be entered manually by
using the Joystick to select the
FFLOW field. Use the Rotary
Knob to enter the desired
value. User entered values,
and calculations based on user
entered data are displayed in
yellow as seen in Figure 1-108.

only be entered manually on
the ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN
Page if no fuel flow monitor is
installed.
