They just ran this story on TV3 lately and the pilot stated they topped the fuel up prior to departure for 2 hrs20 by dipping tank and measured fuel and they had completed 1.5hrs when it faltered. mind you something else doesnt add up as they obtained "$20 worth" to depart which at todays $2.01 / litre for 91 octane would not be much flight time allowing reserves and unuseables?
