Hi
I'm stuck on a question for Bravo
Basic empty weight - 1256lbs
Row1 - 325 lbs
110 litres fuel and the maximum permitted baggage.
What is the maximum weight of passengers that can be put in the rear seat?
A. 260lbs
B. 297lbs
C. 280lbs
D. 277lbs
My point A on the envelope was the total weight of the original loading zfw. And my point B was adding a random weight in the rear seats to the zfw.
I'm wondering if I should have added the fuel to the original zfw. And add the random weight to the rear seats with the gross weight. And how does this question relate to Charlie and echo if the method is the same. I hope my explanation is clear enough.
