Top Of Descent

Question 24

MTOM is?

MLM is?

Answer 24

Maximum Take-Off Mass

Maximum Landing Mass

Question 25

MZFM is?

Answer 25

Maximum Zero Fuel Mass = total mass of the aircraft - the usable fuel

Question 26

BEM is?

Answer 26

Basic Empty Mass

Mass of the engines, oil, unusable fuel, equipment as passengers seats or extinguishers

Question 27

VL is?

Answer 27

Variable Load

Weight of the crew, their baggage, food, water and any special equipment for a special role

Question 28

DOM is?

Answer 28

Dry Operating Mass = BEM (Basic Empty Mass) + VL (Variable Load)
(excludes usable fuel and payload)

Question 29

Traffic load is?

Answer 29

Payload + non-revenue load

Traffic load + DOM (Dry Operation Mass) = ZFM (Zero Fuel Mass)

Question 30

TOM is?

Answer 30

Take Off Mass = ZFM (Zero Fuel Mass) + takeoff fuel

Question 31

OM is?

Answer 31

Operating Mass = DOM (Dry Operating Mass) + takeoff fuel = TOM (Take Off Mass) - payload
