 - First of all FTW takes the fuel consumption sent by the respective simulation, i.e.: x kg were consumed, according to the simulation.
 (The fuel level at the beginning of the flight minus the fuel level at the end of the flight is not calculated, but the live sent consumption from the simulation is used).
+And it shows that value in Yaacars.
-- Then FTW checks if this consumption agrees with the stored value in the database to xx percent. (Thereby the tolerance is designed very much in favor of the user).
