Hi Crab: because of the nose up attitude in the hover, the pumps run dry at low fuel levels. So, you have the option to depart the hover and level the a/c immersing the pumps in fuel and extinguishing the captions, OR, cancelling the captions every few minutes, OR switching the pumps off until you depart the hover at a time to suit you and then switch them back on.............................................if you remember
