Pretty sure that half the fuel does not have a possible solution. :)

I can do it with 1/6 fuel left (but I've never calculated the optimum).

And I have to say - it took me dozens of times to figure out how to do it 
without crashing. Neil did it the first time - in real time - and got it right. 
Damn impressive.

I had a TI59 with a card reader that had that game on it.  I had fun 
"challenging" others to take off and land the craft.  It was real fun to take 
half the fuel from them.  I had 3 cards.  One for others (like I said half the 
fuel), one for me (12x the fuel, I think it was), and the original card.  I 
made it look easy with all the fuel....so much fun having the kids with better 
grades crash and burn.
