Correct

however the time airborne was confusing. At the start of the day the gauges read 400kg. Due to the fault on the supply tank probes, it was estimated I ACTUALLY had only 370kg (approx)

I knew something was wrong late in the day, but running time/other indications were confusing me. The first red light blew my brain, but I had figured what was happening by then and was landing when the second red light came on.

indicated was 49/26/43

actual on draining was 23/0/22 ............

CAD still read 48/26/43 when tanks were drained.

Folks, please TRUST the red lights and get on the deck ASAP, even if you think it’s a false indication
