Empty Weight Per Seat?

@ G. H.:
You've already seen a few numbers. THe more detailed stuff varies a lot from model to model and airline to airline. In many cases, it is very closely guarded detail that darn sure will not publish. In your shoes, I'd be happy with what you've already been given, not expect much more and move one. As you can imagine, (should know) much if this operating data is closely held, competitive detail; the carriers darn sure won't release these data to you, a unknown, without darn good reason. YES! The carriers collect, maintain and use these numbers for their own, internal purposes. Disclosing this kind of fine detail to an outside visitor is just Not Going to Happen. I won't call these details truly "Secret," but you are getting very close to items are truly are competitive secrets. If nothing else, perhaps pose you question in a different way? Good luck. You are treading on seriously tender ground and that quick and easy answer is just not there. -NFZ
