4Runner.
Max structural take-off weight of B777-200LR 347451KG.
Performance from HKJK, rwy 06 Elev 5330ft, 4117m TORA, wind calm, 18c, 1013hpa,
performance take-off is limited to 319763kg. Dry operating weight 162800KG Max Landing 223200KG. Max Zero Fuel weight 209100KG
That's a penalty of almost 28 tons that can't fly and limits payload or range. We also fly the B777-200F from HKJK to AMS and limited to the weight 319763kg to Amsterdam. BKK is no issue. IAD is an issue from high altitude airport. The aircraft would need to fly 6600nm against a headwind of maybe 40kts average, to IAD and then 80nm to Baltimore, contingency plus reserves.
