Post SIA Low Fuel at LHR

First we had Malaysian, and now its SQ, both running their tanks on dry to LHR. The latest incident took place towards the end of last year, the SIA 747-400 landed at LHR with 2.3 tonnes of fuel remaining. Although this was reported back to SIA management (SIA engineering), at the time, the offending captain was cautioned, but otherwise survived unscathed. The "Malaysian" Singaporean captain, who has a history of foul ups, still flies the line on a regular basis.An accident waiting to happen?? I think we all need to give SIA a miss, or it may it hit you hard.
