I was just flying a training flight in the Islander with the CBFS air file which I found (very useful by the way). I got to around 40 nm away from Shoreham and noticed that I had 7% of fuel left! :doh: :lol:

After saying some rather rude things to my monitor I reduced throttle and started slowly descending, I took this screenshot literally just after turning off the runway..

I think from now on I might double check my fuel levels before taking off... 8) :lol:

Reminds me of the old cars I had where the fuel gauge was marked E---------F and I think the missus thought that stood for Enough and Finished :lol:
