The IAA report gives fuel on landing to the nearest Kg.
I'm just wondering how they worked this out.
Also, by quoting "landing" fuel, I assume that they meant "arriving on stand" fuel, which could be 100 or even 200 Kgs less than fuel on touchdown. I know it's splitting hairs, but standing up in court, I'd rather be 1Kg over the line than 1kg under, especially if the whole world is trying to judge me.
Boeing fuel gauge errors notwithstanding, etc.
