Does someone know offhand what the difference is between hi and low boost? I think low boost might become "low boost plus", same for high. Of course very scenario has trade-offs. I'd want to get as much fuel as possible out of the ferry tanks, and plumbing directly to the engine and then going very low on that tank makes me nervous too.
