 1.Limitation(Aircraft)
Performance limitation
MTOW=75000KG

MTOW also will

be limited by
C.G
 1.Limitation(Environment)
Different winds or QNH.

75500kg 75400kg 75100kg 75500kg

 1.Limitation(Enroute)
Weight=54000KG

We must control
the weight on
ground to
maintain the
Weight=75000KG
sufficient
clearance to the
mountains.
So, we must
control the MTOW.
 1.Limitation (Regulations)
1.Length of Takeoff distance requirements
(CS 25.109 Accelerate-stop distance)

2.Takeoff climb gradient requirements

(CS 25.107 Take-off speeds)

3.Takeoff speed requirements

(CS 25.111 Take-off path )
 2.Policy of Weight&Balance
• Standard Crew Weights

Weights are valid for male and female crew members.

The standard crew weights include usual hand baggage.
Any additional baggage piece must be taken into account.
 2.Policy of Weight&Balance
• Standard Passenger Weights

Standard weight(including hand baggage) . Standard passenger weights

should normally be used for calculation. Alternate weights may be used,
provided that hand baggage is accounted separately and the Commander is
being informed about using those alternate weight. When using alternate
weight values for carry-on baggage, 8 kg should be used per piece.
 2.Policy of Weight&Balance
LMC Requirement:
Last Minute Changes provide a means of entering late
alterations to the load, crew or passengers state without
requiring a complete re-calculation and reissue of the
Load and Trim Sheet. The maximum permitted LMC is +/-
500kg.
LMC correction is not permitted in case of fuel LMC. In all
cases of fuel LMC, a new load sheet must be issued.
For training, ferry, technical and test flights the same
rules apply as per passenger flights.
 2.Policy of Weight&Balance
Standard crew number, including:
3 pilots
5 flight attendants
How to do with 3/6/5?
3 pilots in cockpit(max)
6 cabin crew on their seats(max)
5 persons such as engineers block seats.
