757 max ZFW

Featured Replies

Hello,What is the maximum ZFW for the 757-200? As I am using Tero's fde and in the PIC fmc i can only enter the minimum ZFW 82,000kgs, anything less won't allow.I converted that into lbs which is 180,728lbs. I changed the ZFW in the aircraft.cfg and it should be ok.I was just wondering what the max ZFW was. As I like entering a real ZFW but using charts for things like approach speeds.Have a merry xmas.Regards,Alexander Martin.

An exact figure for the 757's our airline uses is 83497 KGS.Cheers[br]obklogo.gif[/img][/font][/b]

Is that just with an average PAX load? You guys don't worry about basing it on the amount of passangers?

Cam,83500 KGS is the MAX ZFW for the 757.For a charter flight - 233 or 235 Y class the typical ZFW is around the 81750 KGS mark.

Ben,what's the DOW of the 757 Freighters.The charter 757's are usually around the 60T mark.

Hi.Well the DOW varies aircraft to aircraft but on average the freighters are about 55T.Cheers[br]obklogo.gif[/img][/font][/b]

That's around 3 tonne less than the Charter APS weight.

I fly with a ZFW of 82,000kgs. So this should be ok?Regards,Alexander Martin.

Should be fine.
