How to check my payload before landing? - topmixed - 25-01-2007
Dear All,
How to check my payload before landing?
Whenever active FsPassengers, I can't check my aircraft 's payload before landing!

Get your payload before taking off, write it down somewhere. Before landing, press Shift + Ctrl + I to bring up the situation report. Find how
much fuel you have burned on the trip. Subtract fuel consumed from take off weight.
An example is below, with random numbers substituted.
Takeoff Weight : 100,000 pounds
Fuel burned: 30,000 pounds
So: 100,000 pounds - 30,000 pounds = 70,000 pounds.
70,000 pounds is your landing weight. Hope this helps.

Dear Sir,

yes real pilots do that thorughout the flight at differnt legs to check for fuel leaks or anything
but yes at landing they would use basic maths because if it was done by computer theres a chance there could be a malfuction in the computer
