@acarsdrama As long as the gauge reads zero by the time there is zero fuel left that's all it has to do πŸ˜‚

[This is what hobby pilots generally believe about the legal requirements on fuel gauges in light aircraft - if the tank is empty the gauge mustn't say that it's non-empty, but that's the only requirement.]
