At most all you've learned is what the fuel capacity of your tanks

violate FARs as a regular practice.


What FAR says you may not run a tank dry?

The FARs address minimum fuel levels when you arrive at your destination.


It doesn't say which tank it has to be in, so you have not answered the
question.


If you have less than the required amount when you land, you are in
violation.


Still haven't answered his question.

If you are managing your fuel consumption adequately, there is
no need to run your tank dry.


And you STILL haven't answered his question.

Oh-for-three.
