payload/range

There is also something called the payload/range diagram. Both the 345 and 388 can take their maximum payload farther than the 773ER. The shorter the design range for maximum payload, the higher the percentage of payload as part of MTOW. Examples to the extreme:

Pt.103 microlight: Payload >50% of MTOW.
Saturn V: Payload <1% of MTOW
