Load Manager Swissair Flight London Zurich

Featured Replies

The manual of the PMDG MD-11 Flight from London to Zurich show the following from theload manager Manual My Flight ZFW: 177.867 195.041 ZFWCG 28.2 23.1 TOGW 207.351 224.361 Fuel 30.000 30.000 PaxWeight 26.29 27.751 Cargo Weight 27.578 43.291 TOCG 31.40 26.80My question #1 : Why is the cargo weight not included in the TOGW ? As far as I know TOGW stands for Total Gross Weight.Question #2 : How can I correct the situation,especially getting the value of 177.867 for ZFW ?It is not a big issue,nevertheless I wonder how to get it right.ThanksHerbertt Werni

TOGW does not mean total gross weight. It means TakeOff Gross Weight. That number should take into effect the zero fuel weight (passenger weight, cargo weight and the weight of the aircraft itself), and the fuel weight (minus 1,500 pounds to account for taxi).Click 2/3 passengers, 30,000 lbs for the fuel, and a full forward cargo hold and that should give you the correct values.
