A freighter aircraft of course has the most accurate calculated
weight - everything is weighed, as against standard weights
for pax trips which can have large differences in actual weight
depending on what race of humans there is down the back as
well as how many.

80kg is way too light for your average Western slob against a
Burmese peasant who couldn't ever weigh that much even if
you filled his boots with mud.
