If that's the case in real world aviation, then every aircraft I flew while
I was flying regularly, way back when, would have been grounded waiting a
fix that never came.

Why is it so remarkable that the fuel gauges in the new aircraft I'm looking
at are actually considered reliable? I've hear dlots of comments to that
effect. "Hey, fuel gauges you can believe! Wow!"
