Post OZ domestic fuel reserves.

Would you mind explaining the Australian Domestic Fuel policy to me,

I was looking through some paperwork which stated:

> Diversion = 45 mins continued cruise
> Hold = 60 mins at max endurance
> Cont = 15% of block fuel.

Under the FAR rules, we only need to consider:

> Diversion to closest Alternate
> Hold = 45 mins

Why do you have to carry so much fuel?

Thanks.
