The MORA is 12.600ft and at that altitude, above 5.000 ft, it gives you 2000 ft clearance. Therefore the highest obstacle rises up to 10.600ft. At 11.110 ft you will clear that obstacle in a way that would grant you a tea no biscuits meeting at the Chief Pilot's office at any reputable Airline. But hey, you'll be alive unless you throw in some wind and low temperatures into the equation.
Now let's see If I can get the M&B quiz right.
You must meet the three following restrictions:
1) DOM+TOF+Payload <= MTOM
2) DOM+Payload <= MZFM
3) DOM+Payload+TOF-trip <= MLM
Additionally:
4) DOM+Payload+FOB <= MRM
That gives you:
1) Payload <= MTOM-DOM-TOF
2) Payload <= MZFM-DOM
3) Payload <= MLM-DOM-TOF+trip
4) Payload <= MRM-DOM-FOB
TOF = Takeoff fuel
trip = trip fuel
FOB = ramp fuel (off block total fuel on board)
MRM = Max Ramp Mass
You take the lowest figure and that will be your allowed max payload
Note: on lighter aircraft MRM=MTOM
Ah thanks, this is exactly what I needed !
