This document discusses a British Air flight approaching O'Hare airport that has been in a holding pattern for 45 minutes due to bad weather. The flight crew could declare an emergency to land immediately, but an FAA investigation would be launched and other flights could be endangered. The null hypothesis is that there is enough fuel for the plane to stay aloft for 15 more minutes while waiting to land.
