The maximum landing weight (MLW), also known as the maximum structural landing weight or maximum structural landing mass, [1] is the maximum aircraft gross weight due to design or operational limitations at which an aircraft is permitted to land. The MLW is set in order to ensure safe landings; if an aircraft weighs too heavy during touchdown ...
Type MTOW [kg] MLW [tonnes] TOR [m] LR [m] ICAO category FAA category; Antonov An-225: 640,000: 591.7: 3,500: Super: Super Scaled Composites Model 351 Stratolaunch
The maximum weight authorised for normal landing of an aircraft. The MLW must not exceed the MTOW. The operation landing weight may be limited to a weight lower than the Maximum Landing Weight by the most restrictive of the following requirements: Aircraft performance requirements for a given altitude and temperature:
[32] [33] [34] Both the earlier and later takeoff weights establish the An-225 as the world's heaviest aircraft, exceeding the weight of the double-deck Airbus A380 airliner. Airbus claims to have improved upon the An-225's maximum landing weight by landing an A380 at 591.7 t (652.2 short tons) during testing. [35] [a]
That first version would have had a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 580,000 pounds (260,000 kg) and would have used CF6-80C2 or PW4000 engines. The MD-11X-20 was to have a longer fuselage, accommodating up to 331 passengers in a mixed-class layout, and a range of 6,000 nautical miles (11,000 km; 6,900 mi).
The landing gear was replaced, using the simpler system from the Cessna 414. The landing gear track was also increased by 4 feet (1.2 m). The engines' output was boosted to 325 hp (242 kW) each and max gross weight increased to 6,850 pounds (3,110 kg), creating a much more useful airplane. Fuel capacity was increased to 213 US gallons (810 L).
Max landing weight (normal): 130,000 lb (58,967 kg) Max landing weight (overload) : 155,000 lb (70,307 kg) Fuel capacity: 6,750 US gal (5,620 imp gal; 25,600 L) without suppressant foam ; 6,436 US gal (5,359 imp gal; 24,360 L) with suppressant foam
The 350 has the same takeoff and landing weights as the 300; maximum takeoff weight is 3400 lb (1542 kg) and the maximum landing weight is 3230 lb (1465 kg). [4] Like the 300 and 400, the 350 has a certified airframe life of 25,200 flight hours. [4]
