Just realised that "fixed reserve" is defined as fuel required at holding speed at 1500ft AGL of the aerodrome. So that for me for 45 minutes it would be about Ten litres. It is not 45 minutes of cruise fuel.

Either CASA has got it wrong or I misunderstand since there is no way in hell I would ever plan to land with less than. That volume anyway.
