The basic points are these:

A fuel policy dictates minimum fuel load, not the fuel load that is necessarily carried, that's up to the PIC.

Any pilot that proceeds to a single runway airport in the pacific in the middle of the night,regardless of weather, without the fuel to go elsewhere, is an idiot.
