Refer to figure or Loading Manual MRJT 1 Paragraph 3.1. The medium range jet transport aeroplane is to operate a flight carrying the maximum possible fuel load. Using the following data as appropriate, determine the maximum mass of fuel on board at the start of the take-off.

Departure airfield performance limited take-off mass: 60 400 kg 
Landing airfield -not performance limited. 
Dry Operating Mass: 34 930 kg 
Traffic load for flight: 11 000 kg

Fuel required for flight: 
Taxi fuel: 715 kg 
Trip fuel: 8600 kg 
Contingency and final reserve fuel: 1700 kg 
Alternate fuel: 1500 kg 
Additional reserve: 400 kg

  • A

    16 080 kg.

  • B

    14 470 kg.

  • C

    13 655 kg.

  • D

    15 815 kg.

Step 1. Establish the allowed Take-off Mass:

RTOMRLM + Trip Fuel 
-54 900 + 8600 
60 40063 500 

 

Step 2. Find the maximum take-off fuel possible:

TOM - DOM - Traffic Load = Take-off fuel allowed

60 400 - 34 930 - 11 000 = 14 470 kg
