Q

What are the standard calls for low fuel state and describe.

A

MINIMUM FUEL:
Having committed to land at a aerodrome, the pilot calculates any change to the existing clearance to that aerodrome may result in landing with less than planned final reserve.

When the calculated usable fuel predicted to be available upon landing at the nearest aerodrome where a safe landing can be made is less then the planned final reserve.
