Hi all, I've been using Flight Sim for a while, but only just for playing around.
Recently I have become a bit more involved in doing adventures.
I am attempting to try a flight around the world in a twin engined Beechcraft Baron, and I am finding it difficult to identify where refueling point are at some airports.
Previously while flying around Australia, most airports that I landed at had the yellow square indicating fuel points, now a large number of airports do not have the yellow squares, and having no experience as a pilot, how do I identify where the refuel points are.
Currently I am landed at Kuala Lumpur international, after taking off from Changi in Singapore, neither of these had refueling points that I could identify.
Thanks in advance for any help.
It may be that simple that it would seem obvious after it is pointed out.
Alex.

Psst....it's not that important....just taxi to a place where you think there should be a refueling spot and then "refuel" there

....But for the sake of being realistic, you will find a fuel pump at an airport. Taxi up to it, shut your engines off, and your aircraft will be fueled up

Sounds like he might already know that.
If there is no fuel anywhere to be found, you can hit "alt+a+f" to bring up the fuel menu and refuel from there. This is in no way cheating

... but it's not particularly realistic taxi-ing around the airport all day looking for fuel. On FS9, the GPS indicates whether or not fuel is available at an airport.
