True or False: Fuel load balancing should be attempted even if the AEDD shows FP Fail.

Fuel load balancing should not be attempted when the Aircraft Engine Data Display (AEDD) shows a Fuel Probe Failure (FP Fail) because this indicates that the system is unable to accurately measure the fuel levels in the tanks. Attempting to balance fuel under these circumstances can lead to incorrect assumptions about the actual fuel state, potentially resulting in an imbalance that could affect aircraft performance and safety.

When the AEDD indicates a fuel probe failure, it is critical to rely on other methods for assessing fuel status, such as using manual calculations or verifying with visual checks if applicable, rather than attempting to balance based on potentially faulty data. The priority in such situations should focus on ensuring the aircraft is safe for operation rather than managing fuel load when the required data is unreliable. Therefore, the best practice is to refrain from fuel load balancing until the issue is resolved and reliable readings can be established.
