Why would pilots have to declare a Fuel Emergency and have you ever wondered about how much fuel the aircraft are carrying?
What will happen if an aircraft starts to run out of fuel, mid flight?
In this episode I will explain a bit about this and how we Pilots are trained to deal with problems like this.
The likelihood of a LOW FUEL situation is very remote. That is because we have big margins built into our fuel calculations from the start but also because we plan our flights very carefully and always add extra fuel when we see a reason for it.
We have 3 defined steps that we talk about when we are approaching a low fuel situation. All of them are explained within this video.
