Well thats not an issue because he trusts their maintanence program... and if you trust it, the planes will never have a problem (said sarcastically)

ok... IF the pilot is comfortable flying at IFR mins, then he well also be comfortable flying with the minimum fuel requirement. And 45 min especially in the northeast, really doesn't get you out of the weather. As i remember if one place is bad, there all usually bad, not like florida!
Being comfortable doesn't mean being safe!
