That's a rather negative way to look at it!!!

Better safe than sorry, I say.

In a few days I will be
flying for 2 1/2 hours on a cross country. I will have 4 1/2 hours
fuel. That doesn't sound reckless to me!!!

If you really have the fuel you think you have, and if you really consume it
as slowly as you think you do, perhaps not.

Say 32 litres and hour, plus or minus a few - ain't gonna make much
difference.

Or to rephrase, how can a 32l/hr plane consume say twice that?

We know you're not a real pilot -

He's not even an unreal pilot.
