Weight of an empty 737-800

I am trying to find out an accurate empty or APS weight for a 737 - 800. The Boeing web pages only give max weights. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Thanks

William

Another document, also courtesy of those nice folks at Boeing, is the 737 airport manual here. There can be weight variations within a single model, so look at the sub-variants and engines, etc. And finally, once the aircraft gets into the sticky hands of the user, modifications are often made (indeed as are service bulletin/engineering changes), all of which may further change the weight.
