For the 777, (at least the -200 version)
Fuel Jettison rate with both nozzles and override/jettison pumps running (i.e. normal operation) the book figure is 2449 kg/min
It has two operation modes............
1. MLW
2. Manual mode
In MLW mode the aircraft calculates the amount to dump to bring it to MLW (max landing weight) clever eh ?
It even will stop dumping if it works out if the C. of G. will go too far foward during the dump.......bloodly clever eh ?
In manual mode you can select amount of fuel to remain.
