FUEL MEASURING STICK
Two measuring sticks under each wing permit to check the fuel
quantity in the tanks. Each measuring stick provides visual indication of
the total fuel quantity of the associated wing tank.
Information about using the Fuel Measuring Stick can be found in the
Ground Servicing Section (1-12-25).
NOTE: The EMB-145LR/LU, EMB-135LR, ERJ-140 and EMB-145XR
models have two additional measuring sticks, one for each
wing stub tank.
