SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMING A LOAD CAPACITY OF AN AIRCRAFT

In a particular implementation, a method (700) includes generating (702) an initial weight estimate (124) associated with a vehicle (600), such as an aircraft, based on a reference operational empty weight (OEW) (132) and at least one of a latitude or an altitude of the vehicle at a first location....

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In a particular implementation, a method (700) includes generating (702) an initial weight estimate (124) associated with a vehicle (600), such as an aircraft, based on a reference operational empty weight (OEW) (132) and at least one of a latitude or an altitude of the vehicle at a first location. The reference OEW is predetermined at a second location that is distinct from the first location. The method includes determining (704) an additional load capability (126) of the vehicle based on a difference between the initial weight estimate and the reference OEW. The method further includes generating (706) an output (140) that indicates the additional load capability.
