Quick question. Are most aircraft wings first and then center tanks?
I ask because I have FSD's Aerostar, and the POH for it states to fill the center tank first, then any fuel needed beyond that goes into the
wings. On take-off and climb, you burn the center tank, at cruise altitude, you switch to the wing tanks, and then on descent and landing
you go back to the center tank, even if there's still fuel in the wings. Is the Aerostar just an exception to the normal rule?
