The empty aircraft weight defines the starting point for fuel, payload and mission configuration.

  • Baseline for mission load planning

  • Evaluated together with fuel and payload

  • Supports weight-and-balance control

What the parameter means in operation

Empty weight determines the allowance for fuel and mission equipment within MTOW. Pre-flight weight and balance assessment also includes payload mounting and all accessories.

Mission planning considers fuel, payload and the aircraft configuration together. The quoted maximum values are not additive; weight, balance and achievable endurance must be confirmed for each configuration.
