Spot on what Ixixly said. This is not an uncommon occurrence with RPT traffic arrivals into Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne when CB's or another occurrence has caused massive delays resulting in fuel emergency calls. No one ends up in the charge dock as a result. Talk of criminality is simply nonsense.
There are still fuel exhaustion incidents occurring among GA aircraft, so I don't think it is a bad thing. As Capn Bloggs said, "It's not that bl@@dy hard".
Flame away!
