SKADI - could you complete your story.......both main tank pump have now been switched off. What would then happen? Is it:

1. Supply tank content indications start to decrease......
2. Time ?.....AMBER FUEL LOW Illuminates for each Supply Tank....Time??
3. .....RED FUEL LOW illuminates for each Supply Tank...........Aproximatley 8 minutes (?) to first flame-out.
1. right
2. normally yes, but according to the published SIN could be after #3 in the worst case
3. RED FUEL LOW on, ECL says to be on the ground within 8 or 10 min ( depends on the installed fuel tanks ), so first flameout after that time.
