## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED MIN FUEL DECLARED EMERGENCY INBOUND TO PHX DUE TO REROUTES/ PSBL HOLDING DUE TO WX/ LANDED WITH 4.3 FOB MINIMUM FUEL IS NOT A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. MIN FUEL MEANS THAT HE WAS DECLARING BECAUSE THEY WERE OUT OF RESERVE FUEL FOR AN ALTERNATE DESTINATION. IF ATC REQUESTED THAT THEY HOLD OR DIVERT, THEY COULD RUN OUT OF FUEL.
