Fuel starvation and fuel exhaustion(sometimes referred to as fuel depletion) are problems that can affect internal combustion engines fuelled by either diesel, kerosene, petroleum or any other combustible liquid or gas. If no fuel is available for an engine to burn, it cannot function. All modes of transport powered by such engines can be affected by this problem, but the consequences are most significant when it occurs to aircraft in flight. There are two main ways that an engine can run out of fuel :-Using up fuel. This is the most common cause of fuel exhaustion. An engine can use up all available fuel due to insufficient fuel being loaded for the planned journey or the journey time extended for too long(in the case of an aircraft, due to in-flight delays or problems)... ;-Leaking. In some cases, the fuel tank or the supply piping to the engine leaks and fuel is lost. This can cause engines to starve.  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - fuel%20exhaustion

Posterns are often built on the sides to facilitate the making of sorties.... Some posterns will be constructed obliquely through the wall, while others have an elbow turning; but all should be so designed as to be out of range of stone-throwing engines and obscured from view from the outside.  3, fiche 4, Anglais, - postern

On nomme poternes de petites portes dérobées ouvertes dans les endroits les moins apparents et les moins exposés des forteresses pour favoriser les sorties, évasions et autres communications avec le dehors en temps de siège. Ces portes de sortie s'ouvrent parfois à une certaine distance de la place [...]  1, fiche 4, Français, - poterne
