Re the 717, with a full load of pax on the HGW aircraft it would be very unlikely to have a payload of more than 11000kg or 12000kg max as the hold will bulk out first (unless your carrying gold). So with a DOW of 31000kgs you're looking at 10 or 11 tonnes of gas and a full ship of punters. Hope this helps the err.... conversation!
