REFLECTOR:Low fuel light

[reflector@tvbf.org]

You tell 'em Scott, this stuff cracks me up! A whole lot of noise about
and obvious and basically mute point. We have been flying with the same
warning for the past 10-15 years. What the hell do we need, some one to
knock us in the head and remind us to do our pilot stuff and manage the
airplane?? What do you find in a certified that relates to this subject,
NOTHING!!!! There seems to be a preconception about the factory in that
they are the bad guys that don't care about the customer after the sale.
Oh really, that's total BS. The systems work fine, if you are incapable
of managing the factory designed system then come up with a better idea
and share it with all of us - after you have proven that it is a better
solution, that is...
