Prior to departure an aircraft is loaded with 16 500 litres of fuel at a fuel density of 780 kg/m3. This is entered into the load sheet as 16 500 kg and calculations are carried out accordingly. As a result of this error, the aircraft is…

  • A
    lighter than anticipated and the calculated safety speeds will be too high.
  • B
    heavier than anticipated and the calculated safety speeds will be too high.
  • C
    heavier than anticipated and the calculated safety speeds will be too low.
  • D
    lighter than anticipated and the calculated safety speeds will be too low.

Fuel volume: 16 500

Fuel density: 780 kg/m3

Fuel mass = 16 500 x 0.78 = 12 870 kg

Load entered in load sheet is higher than actual load of airplane, airplane is lighter than anticipated and calculated safety speeds is too high.
