Its the JAA ATPL. At the moment pilots just have to be able to say that MZFM is created because of 'stresses at the wing roots' but there are other objectives, as yet unexamined in much detail, that require a knowledge of the loads on the wing, fuselage and empennage on the ground and in flight and need a knowledge of the structural limits and their origins. This question is for me, so I can get the training material right.

G'day BIK, hi BM, do you still remember all that Performance? figure 18 temperature trap??!?

FE Hoppy, does MLW - MZFW = fuel in the wings? Not in my experience, but I'm prepared to be proved wrong.
