When I worked in the GR7/9 sim at Wittering we sometimes gave an emergency which results in 500 lbs of useable fuel, regardless of the amount indicated on the gauges. This was commonly given on the way back from Holbeach to Wittering and pilots sometimes did a slow landing on a fenland road. Flat, straight and of course, no traffic in the sim database, to complicate the issue.
