mickjoebill;

I can't find any reference in flight manuals to unusable fuel with pumps off.
Perhaps clicking on this will help

First result, pages 85 & 86
You've proved my point there is no advice on page 85 or 86 on fuel available with pumps turned off.

Page 85 and 86 does state 75kg unusable in hover reduced to 7kg at 80knots, could this lead pilots to assume the supply tanks are gravity fed?
