The MLW of a BA 747-400 is 285,760 kgs. The MZFW is 246,750 kgs (four aircraft are 251,740 kgs). The landing weight is usually in the 240,000kgs to 250,000kgs range.

Thanks for you response Captain Airclues, but I am afraid I have signed for 630,000 lbs, 652,000 lbs and 666,000 lbs(747-400F) MLW for the 747-400. I am not looking for cert weights I am looking for average operational weights at London Heathrow.

CG loading would be nice as well.

See my last sentence;

"The landing weight is usually in the 240,000kgs to 250,000kgs range."

Isn't that the answer that you wanted? You will have to convert it to lbs.

It is my fault that I didn't explain myself well enough. I was looking for your average operational weights. Not the certified weights. Is that what you are saying?

Thanks again.

Suggest you get your head out of your behind...FOCAL.
What is it about the replies that you do not understand?

411A- Why aren't you out flying your 152?

Don't have one, FOCAL. The aircraft that I fly has three engines (very nice RB.211 engines I might add). The chaps above have been quite patient in their replies, but notice that you still do not understand.
Your lack of professional demeanor is showing, especially on technical subjects. <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">
