Maximum Payload Capability Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Payload = Maximum Take Off Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load
W_pay = MTOW-W_OE-W_f
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Payload - (Measured in Kilogram) - Payload of a passenger aircraft is the total weight of cargo plus additional passengers being carried in the airplane.
Maximum Take Off Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Maximum Take Off Weight often referred to as maximum takeoff weight (MTOW), of an aircraft is a value defined by the aircraft manufacturer.
Operating Empty Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Operating Empty Weight is the sum of the empty weight and the crew plus their baggage.
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

Maximum Take Off Weight: 62322 Kilogram --> 62322 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Operating Empty Weight: 453 Kilogram --> 453 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Fuel Load: 9499 Kilogram --> 9499 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_pay = MTOW-W_OE-W_f --> 62322-453-9499

Evaluating ... ...

W_pay = 52370

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

52370 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

52370 Kilogram <-- Payload

Payload = Maximum Take Off Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load
W_pay = MTOW-W_OE-W_f

What is maximum payload of an aircraft?

Maximum payload capacity means the maximum certificated takeoff weight of an aircraft less the empty weight as defined in section 03 of part 241 of this chapter, less all justifiable aircraft equipment, and less the operating load (consisting of minimum fuel load, oil, flight crew, steward's supplies, etc.)

How to Calculate Maximum Payload Capability?

Maximum Payload Capability calculator uses Payload = Maximum Take Off Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load to calculate the Payload, The Maximum Payload Capability of an aircraft refers to the maximum weight of passengers, cargo, and other items that can be carried on board while meeting safety and performance requirements,the formula for calculating the maximum payload capability typically involves subtracting the operational empty weight (OEW) of the aircraft from its maximum takeoff weight (MTOW). Payload is denoted by W_pay symbol.

How to calculate Maximum Payload Capability using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Maximum Payload Capability, enter Maximum Take Off Weight (MTOW), Operating Empty Weight (W_OE) & Fuel Load (W_f) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Maximum Payload Capability calculation can be explained with given input values -> 53046 = 62322-453-9499.

FAQ

What is Maximum Payload Capability?

The Maximum Payload Capability of an aircraft refers to the maximum weight of passengers, cargo, and other items that can be carried on board while meeting safety and performance requirements,the formula for calculating the maximum payload capability typically involves subtracting the operational empty weight (OEW) of the aircraft from its maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) and is represented as W_pay = MTOW-W_OE-W_f or Payload = Maximum Take Off Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load. Maximum Take Off Weight often referred to as maximum takeoff weight (MTOW), of an aircraft is a value defined by the aircraft manufacturer, Operating Empty Weight is the sum of the empty weight and the crew plus their baggage & Fuel Load may be available fuel (consumable fuel) or total fuel and is usually dry weight.
