Regulation (EU) 2024/1111
(a) The IAM operator shall establish policies and procedures ensuring that in-flight fuel/energy checks and fuel/energy management are performed.
(b) The PIC shall monitor the amount of usable fuel/energy remaining in the VCA to ensure that it is protected and not less than the fuel/energy required to proceed to the selected destination vertiport, diversion location or VEMS operating site where a safe landing can be performed.
(c) When a change to the clearance to proceed to a specific vertiport, diversion location or VEMS operating site at which the PIC has committed to land may result in landing with less than the planned final reserve fuel/energy, they shall advise air traffic control (ATC) of a “minimum fuel / energy” state by declaring “MINIMUM FUEL”.
(d) The PIC shall declare a situation of “fuel/energy emergency” by broadcasting “MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY FUEL” when the usable fuel/energy that is calculated to be available upon landing at the nearest vertiport, diversion location or VEMS operating site where a safe landing can be performed is less than the planned final reserve fuel/energy.
