Hi guys, Let me clear up all the misunderstandings. You know when i start my FSX it is not to do some nice videos of the outside of the plane etc... Its like practicing for me, and trying to stick to Real world operations as much as possible: thats what this sim thing is all about for me. If i wasn't sure that these values are fully correct i would not post here, because i don't want you guys to have some erroneous values. I just want you to have what i have especially for those having difficulties finding the right ones.Alright, how did i do?1- MTOW: Pretty simple, its written on the FMC payload page, furthermore you can also find it in the aircraft cfg.2-EOW: i did some basic calculus using the FMC : Removing pax, cargo and fuel gives you the empty weight. and once again when you cross check with the aircraft cfg, you get the same value (with a difference of less than 100 lbs)3- MZFW: Same thing here, full load minus fuel gives you the MZFW, you just add more and more cargo until the ZFW parameter becomes yellow meaning you overshot the value. Using the FMC once again: basic calculus.I did all this in all the 737 NG variants few weeks ago using kg because i always fly in kg. I was so convicted that i was right that i did not make any verifications. Even though i could see quite the same values in the FSB aircraft cfg file. (but thats not the point, because we are talking about the NGX). So this morning i tried to cross check and i converted the values and saw that they are correct and that they match the aircraft cfg file values with a difference of 100lb or so , sometimes less (30 lbs....), depending on which item we are talking about. I did this verification this morning, because initially i only used the the FMC. Now anyone can verify that what i posted is correct. Thanks for your attention guys and enjoy!

1- MTOW: Pretty simple, its written on the FMC payload page, furthermore you can also find it in the aircraft cfgI am a little confused because the only weight like this in the FMC is MTW. As far as I know MTW is Maximum Taxi Weight and MTOW is Maximum Take Off Weight?
