August 16, 200322 yr Folks:The PMDG manual states that the MTOW is ~133K lbs. But then on the page that gives V1, Vr, V2, it has speeds for weights up to 70K kg, which is ~155K lbs.I checked Boeing's website and discovered that the 737-700 must come in several variants because there are MTOW's of ~133K and ~155K.So, which one do we have? The FS2004 fuel/payload adjuster (the one that's part of FS9) allows up to 155K before it states that the a/c is overweight. But the PMDG load editor says MTOW is 133KThere's all sorts of conflicting data, so which one is it???Thanks,James
August 16, 200322 yr 133,000lbs seems way out of line. There is a loader .ini file in the FSPMDG folder you can edit with Notepad to change the MTOW to 154,500 or thereabouts. I tried a takeoff at that MTOW, and it worked just fine.Lee Hetherington (KBED)
