I bet it gets changed when commonsense prevails.
You asked where it came from. It comes from ICAO. Used overseas with no problems for years- I guess I don't get that Australia is "different" (though I seem to remember somone constantly critisizing Australian uniqueness in the past.....)

You didnt answer my question- how little fuel is an emergency?
