More Detail

DH Driver

Using VQG (config 12J90Y)
OEW 30978kg
102pax X 84kg
+1 bag per person at 14kg per bag

ZFW = 40,974kg
allowing for extra bags and or freight lets call it a round 42500kg
(an extra 1500+kgs)
minus that from the Max BRW of 53524kg
= 11,000kg approx.
minus from that 1500kg of fixed reserves
110% of flight fuel = 9500kg
therefore max flight fuel is around 8600-8700kg
with a full flight

holding rate is 1800kg/hr
if you need more fuel you can just take it from the 1500+kgs
I allowed for earlier in the calculation
can anyone publish similar figures for the BAe146
