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 ...
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:
The ACN, a number that expresses the relative effect on an airplane of a given weight on a pavement structure for a specified standard subgrade strength; The PCN, a number (and series of letters) representing the pavement bearing strength (on the same scale as ACN) of a given pavement section (runway, taxiway, apron) for unrestricted operations.

They are defined in terms of V REF of a given aircraft, or if V REF is not specified, 1.3 V s0 at the maximum certificated landing weight. The values of V REF , V S0 , and the maximum certificated landing weight are established for the aircraft by the certification authority of the country of registry.

The Boeing 367-80 airliner prototype could be rolled at low altitudes with a wing loading of 387 kg/m 2 (79 lb/sq ft) at maximum weight. Like any body in circular motion , an aircraft that is fast and strong enough to maintain level flight at speed v in a circle of radius R accelerates towards the center at v 2 / R {\displaystyle v^{2}/R} .
