+===== Fuel =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/fuel.png?nolink|}}
+In first section you can see and adjust the current fuel amount of the aircraft.
+On top of the list you can see ''All Tanks'' which shows the total fuel amount. Below that all individual tanks are listed.
+You can change the current fuel amount either for all tanks - which leads to your change being equally spread around all tanks - or for one tank individually.
+Either click on one of the five percent buttons to quickly set a common fuel amount or enter a specific value into the input field.
+===== Payload =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/payload.png?nolink|}}
+This payload section is designed similar to the fuel section: All payload stations are listed and the load of each payload station can be adjusted by clicking on the appropriate button or entering a specific value manually.
+===== Weight Calculation =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/weight-calculation.png?nolink|}}
+In the weight calculation section the current aircraft weight is calculated in real-time considering the aircraft empty weight, the current payload as well as the remaining fuel in all tanks.
+Additionally the longitudinal and lateral center of gravity (CG) is displayed here.
+:i: Note: The lateral center of gravity is not available for X-Plane.
+===== Freeze Fuel =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/fuel-freeze.png?nolink|}}
+Additionally there is an option to freeze the current fuel amount of the aircraft. Then it will not consume fuel anymore as long as this option is set.
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/fuel-unfreeze.png?nolink|}}
+To unfreeze the fuel again, just click a second time on the button.
+===== Fuel/Load Presets =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/presets.png?nolink|}}
+All your saved fuel/load presets are listed here. There is no limit in the number of fuel/load presets you can define.
+==== Create new Fuel/Load Preset ====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/presets-create-new.png?nolink|}}
+When creating a new fuel/load preset, you need to enter a name for it in this dialog.
+==== Pop-Up Menu ====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/presets-pop-up-menu.png?nolink|}}
+If you right click (long "touch") on a fuel/load preset this pop-up menu will be shown enabling you to rename or delete an existent fuel/load preset again.
+=== Rename Fuel/Load Preset ===
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/fuel-load/presets-rename.png?nolink|}}
+Here you can set a new name for an existent fuel/load preset.
