Do you have a DXB-SYD chart? That distance is within a few miles of the Pacific crossing and probably a more accurate comparison.

You have me scratching my head! The ESAD on the day was ~7100nm. The L/R chart for the 77W shows a ZFW of ~216-tonne for that range . Your payload was ~52.8t which gives a DOW ~ 163t. The typical DOW of the 77W is in the 171 to 175t range. What am I missing?
