Brief Description:  PAP - G8 - Calibrated Fuel Qty System

All of the steps in this section passed with some specific notes as follows:

Used 93 Octane non-ethanol fuel.

Filtered fuel through Mr Funnel into a 2 gallon gas can and then poured into the airplane in 2 gallon increments as specified in the fuel calibration screen of Skyview.

Mechanical fuel gauge at top of fuel tank was at the top of the red arc with aircraft off of the blocks and 4 gallons in the tank.

After final pour (16 gallons), Skyview said that voltage did not change on the final "ADD" and asked if I wanted to use that value or throw it out. I kept it. After finishing calibration and going back to main screen, it took a few minutes for the fuel quantity display to ratchet up. It stopped at 14 gallons. The display is supposed to show "16+". Went back to the calibration screen and saw that I could edit values so changed the last setting from 14.4 to 16.0 gallons. Display now updated to 15 gallons. Edited the last value one more time to 16.4 gallons and the display showed 16+ as expected.

During 2 gallon pours, Denise marked the sight window at 2 gallon increments (starting at 4 gallons). This will provide a nice visual of how much fuel is actually in the tank.
