Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load
W_L = W_TO-W_f
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Landing Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Landing Weight is the maximum aircraft gross weight due to design or operational limitations at which an aircraft is permitted to land.
Takeoff Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Takeoff Weight is the total weight of the aircraft during take-off.
Fuel Load - (Measured in Kilogram) - Fuel load may be available fuel (consumable fuel) or total fuel and is usually dry weight.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Takeoff Weight: 45000 Kilogram --> 45000 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Fuel Load: 28244 Kilogram --> 28244 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_L = W_TO-W_f --> 45000-28244

Evaluating ... ...

W_L = 16756

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

16756 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

16756 Kilogram <-- Landing Weight

Maximum take off weight

Go Maximum Take Off Weight = Payload/(1-((Operating Empty Weight/Takeoff Weight)+(Fuel Load/Takeoff Weight)))

Operating empty weight from unity equation

Go Operating Empty Weight = Takeoff Weight-(Payload+Fuel Load)

Fuel load from unity equation

Go Fuel Load = Takeoff Weight-(Operating Empty Weight+Payload)

Take off weight from Unity equation

Go Takeoff Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Payload+Fuel Load

Payload weight from Unity equation

Go Payload = Takeoff Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load

Zero fuel weight given mission fuel, reserve and take off weight

Go Zero Fuel Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load-Reserve Fuel

Take off weight given reserve, mission and zero fuel weight

Go Takeoff Weight = Zero Fuel Weight+Reserve Fuel+Fuel Load

Mission fuel given take off, reserve and zero fuel weight

Go Fuel Load = Takeoff Weight-Zero Fuel Weight-Reserve Fuel

Operating empty weight

Go Operating Empty Weight = Gross Weight-Useful Weight

Gross weight

Go Gross Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Useful Weight

Useful load

Go Useful Weight = Gross Weight-Operating Empty Weight

Operating empty weight considering zero fuel weight

Go Operating Empty Weight = Zero Fuel Weight-Payload

Payload of aircraft

Go Payload = Zero Fuel Weight-Operating Empty Weight

Zero fuel weight

Go Zero Fuel Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Payload

Landing weight given zero fuel weight and reserve fuel weight

Go Landing Weight = Zero Fuel Weight+Reserve Fuel

Zero fuel weight given reserve and landing weight

Go Zero Fuel Weight = Landing Weight-Reserve Fuel

Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight

Go Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load

Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight Formula

Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load
W_L = W_TO-W_f

Why is the landing weight less than the takeoff?

A plane will (usually) be lighter when it lands than when it takes off, because it burned fuel, so the additional sturdiness will seldom (if ever) be used. Therefore, manufacturers decide to make planes that have a safe take off weight that exceeds the safe landing weight.

How to Calculate Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight?

Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight calculator uses Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load to calculate the Landing Weight, The Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight formula is defined as the maximum landing weight is the maximum aircraft gross weight due to design or operational limitations at which an aircraft is permitted to land. Landing Weight is denoted by W_L symbol.

How to calculate Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight, enter Takeoff Weight (W_TO) & Fuel Load (W_f) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight calculation can be explained with given input values -> 16756 = 45000-28244.

FAQ

What is Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight?

The Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight formula is defined as the maximum landing weight is the maximum aircraft gross weight due to design or operational limitations at which an aircraft is permitted to land and is represented as W_L = W_TO-W_f or Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load. Takeoff Weight is the total weight of the aircraft during take-off & Fuel load may be available fuel (consumable fuel) or total fuel and is usually dry weight.

How to calculate Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight?
