Thanks Rick,

Just looking in the aircraft.cfg for the 800's. It looks like you've picked the weights for the 800 for your model as an 'in-between' so I'll go with those. I notice though that in the .cfg the figure for empty weight is 55000 (mzfw) and not basic empty of 41200. You haven't said MTOW's in your fig above so I am making huge assumptions here. If you concur I will go with

MZFW 55,000lbs
Dry Operating (basic empty) 41,200lbs
MTOW 70,276lbs
Max Payload 13,700lbs

Is it ok to change the empty weight in the .cfg to 41,200lbs?

Many thanks and regards

John

p.s. I didn't mean to appear rude with the 'bump', I just wanted to bump the post nearer to the top
