Has anyone had a problem with the fuel guage on the C 205 . There is no needle to read on the guage and to bring up your clipboard during a good fight can be annoying a bit .

I use the E6B in flight.  Only time I look at gauges is when I'm draining the wing tanks.

think logiclly about this one. The certification standards for the last 70 years in aircraft say the following about fuel systems. "the fuel gauge must indicate correctly at zero when the tank is empty."


That means it can indicate full while 3/4 empty and it does not matter so long as it correctly shows zero at rock bottom
