May 8, 201214 yr On the FUEL or PAYLOAD page (under FS ACTIONS), the MTOW displayed is 174.7 klbs for both the -800 and the -900 variants. According to the manuals, the 174.7 klbs corresponds to the -900, while the -800 should have a MTOW weight of 155.5 klbs. Do others see this as well or is my file corrupted and needs a reinstall? I am seeing this with the default PMDG livery as well as others. Thanks. Rushad E.
May 9, 201214 yr If the airline decides to buy the Increased Gross Weight option, the -800 can handle up to 174.700 lbs on taxi, which is what PMDG modeled. Name available upon request
May 9, 201214 yr Yeah, if you go to boeing's website and look up their pdf documents on the 737, you'll see that the -800 and the baseline (non ER) -900 have the same max takeoff weight option. PMDG modelled the highest weights so then you can decide wich weight limit to limit yourself to if that's what you want to do. ~William Genovese~
