Calculating ZFW with removed seats

calmay7 created the topic: Calculating ZFW with removed seats

CPL Final Test
Q16 8.12

Echo: BEW 1975, IU 476
It says the row 3 seats are removed and loaded as follows... etc etc
When I set up my load sheet I removed 10kg and 43 IU to account for the removal of the seats
I got a ZFW of 2583 and 662.89 IU
The answers are 2593 and 705.89 IU

The answer doesn't account for the removal of the seats. Have I done this incorrectly?

I think you will find that the wording of that question says that the empty weight and moment have already been adjusted for the removal of the seats. So there is not need to do anything.
