I agree with the posts above.

For info, the relevant "unusable fuel" data from the A330-200 Weight and Balance Manual ("unusable fuel is the amount of fuel remaining in the tanks and systems after a fuel run out test has been completed in accordance with the current applicable government regulations."):

- outer tanks: 5.2l each
- inner tanks: 169l each
- centre tank: 83l
- trim tank: 6l
- systems: 68l
------------------
- Total: 504 litres

I am still impressed about the low quantities, considering that the whole thing can take way beyond 130.000 litres!

Cheers, J. V.
