AI RTOLW charts / Perf. penalties

Hi all,

I am a bit confused and would like to ask you for your opinion on the following:

T/O perf. determination using AI RTOLW charts

Problem: GND SPLR CNTRL SYS deactivated

The MEL (o) procedure gives some examples of how to use the charts

B.) How to proceed when the actual TOW is equal to the corrected MTOW (adapted to failed conditions)

C.) How to proceed when the actual TOW is less than the MTOW

The manual also says 'RTOLW charts are not limited by structual weight'

My questions:

What if the aTOW = Max.structual limit weight?

Where should the weight decrement be applied?

Applying the decrements on the perfomance weight gave us a still higher weight than the max. structual weight. What's the sense of a performance penalty if we still can t/o with max. weight?

ISA+10 / 1013 / 3000m / acft is an rather old B2

I am confused and the office is waiting for the report explaining the fuel stop.

Read the manual again and again but still didn't get the point.

English is not my native language and the manual was printed in France !

Any usefull thoughts except that I should attend a performance course again ?
