Oh oh, not good. The insurance won't like that....



Which kind do they "like"?


The one that doesn't happen and where they can keep the money? ;-)

But, seriously, running out of fuel is one good reason for the insurance to
raise the rate dramatically. While an engine failure can happen for many
valid reasons, running out of fuel is almost always a stupid pilot error.
And insurances don't like stupid pilots.
