Your welcome Max, and I fully support your statement:

Well guess what, it doesn't, never did after Broome, should have been grounded until SAC fixed the problem.
I just went back to the posts you mentioned and I think I may have added to the confusion over the S61......again due to some vagueness of the RFM.

I will re-state the S61 MGB has NO demonstrated run dry capability that I'm aware of. The ELS will only give you time (how much no one knows) to make a controlled landing/ditching.

Anyone who has access to the S61 RFM can reference Part 2 Sec 1, page 1-5 for clarification on just what the ELS supplies oil to.
