i just can not imagine that at this point in his trip fuel state isnt the assumed cause of all the problems and if 80kgs is being indicated at the point of engine flame out its hardly a time to over think things?
Pitts, for the first time as I can recall you have got this one right. What you describe, checking pumps (and pump CBs) is the recommended immediate action when LOW FUEL warning illuminate. However, just bear in mind this door has been bolted long after Dobbin left the stable.
