Just curious how many airlines (if any) allow you to pushback before recieving an electronic or radio "fuel slip".
I know some pilots who say you aren't allowed to pushback until you have recieved your fuel numbers via radio or hard copy. Why can't you just compare your fuel guages to the release fuel? Then verify that the fuel slip (radio or electornic) matches during taxi out.
Why is fuel any different than recieving your weight + balance after pushback (radio or electronic.)
