The program can be seen here:
Reporter - Mayday Mayday

At minute 34:00 one of the interviewed pilots tell this:

Pilot: "If I take off and seconds after take off I get a message on my computer that I do not have enough fuel on arrival. If I get that message already at take off than I starts to wonder something must be wrong here "
Reporter: did that happened to you?
Pilot: it happened last week

How is this possible? What I understand this could caused by a bad programming of the FMC by the crew or not taking into account winds enroute. Any comments?
