Mission Fuel given Take Off, Reserve and Zero Fuel Weight Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Fuel Load = Takeoff Weight-Zero Fuel Weight-Reserve Fuel
W_f = W_TO-W_ZF-W_RF
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Fuel Load - (Measured in Kilogram) - Fuel Load may be available fuel (consumable fuel) or total fuel and is usually dry weight.
Takeoff Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Takeoff Weight is the total weight of the aircraft during take-off.
Zero Fuel Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW) is the aircraft's weight with payload on board and empty fuel tanks.
Reserve Fuel - (Measured in Kilogram) - Reserve Fuel is the extra fuel for maneuvering, holding, aborting the landing, and making a diversion flight.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Takeoff Weight: 45000 Kilogram --> 45000 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Zero Fuel Weight: 15756 Kilogram --> 15756 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Reserve Fuel: 1000 Kilogram --> 1000 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_f = W_TO-W_ZF-W_RF --> 45000-15756-1000

Evaluating ... ...

W_f = 28244

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

28244 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

28244 Kilogram <-- Fuel Load
