Surely fuel pickup would only be an issue if the ball isn't in the middle....?
Hey you are picking this up really quick
Of course my black ball is actually white....and its often in the middle.........as it swings from left to right
Actually being serious for a moment, when faced with such a low tank level it would be wise to skid the aircraft slightly to keep all the fuel where you want it I would think. Having not had critically low fuel on arrival it has not been something I had to do.
