I havent heard of a helicopter being certified in the last 20 years with a LOW FUEL light that didn't indicate 20 minutes. Shawn? Nick?
If anyone decides to request assistance for vectors to a suitable airfield, rather than go BUSH, my cudos to him/her. It's all well and good to give the old 'Go to ground' advice, but, when your not there, don't criticize.
When did any professional pilot ever worry about when the feds would get involved? If the elements are asgainst you, you do what you can.
I think the CAA must be very 'Analy Retentive' if they would persue someone for a diversion that was reported.
I for one would go after the 'I Got away with it' guys.
Cheers,
