MZFW (Max Zero Fuel Weight) L-049 ?

Post by lknfly »

Hi Captains,

To complete the simbrief editor I need the MZFW which I don't find online nor in the manual specs.

In any case, thank you!

I have the following note from the F.A.A. Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS)
Structural zero fuel for the Model 49 at 90,000/93,000 lb. take-off and 77,800 lb. landing weights is 75,960 lbs. For all other models, structural adequacy has been shown when the undumpable fuel specified in NOTE 9 is included in the landing weight.
Clear as mud?
