Is it just me.....or am I like most folks....a "30 Minute Run Dry guarantee" does not mean I believe it to be etched in stone and something to take to the bank.

Upon reaching the realization I am in the 30 minute and counting situation on the checklist....I would begin to look between my toes for a landing spot.....any landing spot....and checklist promises be darned!

The ramifications of it being a minute less than my ATA at a coffee shop.....argues for erring broadly on the side of caution. I reckon I am just getting to be an ol' scardy cat in my advancing years.
