But the way media report actual fuel (time) remaining is un-just.
What are the implications to the crew on landing with less than final reserve (30mins) fuel from the company and local authority/ac reg authority standpoint?

I think most sops state something along the lines if it becomes apparent landing with less than final reserve, a pan/mayday must be declared which means they did the right thing and as usual media have not helped (suprise suprise)
