Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The pilot-in-command of a controlled flight must advise air traffic control of a ‘minimum fuel or energy’ state by declaring “MINIMUM FUEL” when the pilot-in-command has:

  1. (1)

    committed to land at a specific aerodrome or operating site; and

  2. (2)

    calculated that any change to the existing clearance to that aerodrome or operating site, or other air traffic delays, may result in landing with less than the planned final reserve fuel or energy.
