Actual fuel quantity used: 5.698

Total time needed according to Simbrief: 0214 + ~15mins for taxi = 0229

Pretty close...

Did you set the cost index in Simbrief?
Was the generated route the same in Simbrief and in PFPX?

Problems with simbrief and some aircaft in the Cargo division have been fixed.

There was a difference between the aircraft icao in our dispatch office and the ones used by simbrief.
