Nope. I have drained the tanks before and used that measurement to
calibrate the computer. Draining the tank shows the computer to be correct within 0.1 gallons (1/10 of a gallon). Running the tank dry once doesn't tell me if I get a new leak but I do also have accurate fuel gauges. If you fly long trips as often as I do, spend some money on the gauges and a good, calibrated fuel computer rather than scar the crap out of your pax.
