in your scenario, i assume there was no alt reqmnt at pre flight stage

that you have fuel for canberra is a bonus. how you use it is up to you according to the regs, so long as you can effect a safe landing at all times.

if a situation transpires that at some point you dont have fuel for a safe landing having considered preflight the factors mentioned in cao 234(3) then ergo you have likely broken the law.

therefore how and where you achieve that safe landing is up to you. the net result is that any decision you make, just make sure you can justify it in court.

company fuel policies all not withstanding of course
