She is on Contractor Sea Trials. Therefore that is a rumour and nothing more. If by some chance it isn’t a rumour, it’s a joke!

Can't speak for local F-35A rules on fuel for the USAF. Been a while. F-35B use much less than 2500lbs for min fuel on the ground, assuming no diversion. Around 1000lb but again, that was a while ago.

Yes GKL, the min landing fuel for F-35B is well established now. Temp isn't a factor in practice. Yet the OT reports from 6 years ago would have you believe otherwise.
