French to English: Concorde Tutorial flight (Phenix Simulation Software) Detailed field: Aerospace / Aviation / Space
Source text - French LOADSHEET
for the Concorde it’s best to deal in metric values
select Options, Settings, International
under Units of measure
make sure Metric (altimeter in feet) is selected
click OK
select Aircraft, Fuel and Payload
check ’Display fuel quantity as weight
Empty weight - is the weight of the aircraft minus fuel and payload, also referred
to as Basic Operating Weight
Payload - is the combined weight of passengers, crew, baggage and cargo
Empty weight + Payload = Zero Fuel Weight
78,698 + 10,759 = 89,457 kgs is less than MZFW of 92,000 kgs
ZFW + FUEL load = Gross Weight (GW)
89,457 + 95,129 = 184,586 kgs
the Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) of the Concorde is approx
185,454 kgs
as our GW of 184,586 Kg is less than the MTOW of 185,454 kgs a full fuel load is
ok for takeoff

Pour le Concorde, l’utilisation des valeurs métriques est plus indiquée.
Sur le menu Options de Flight Simulator, sélectionnez « Paramètres » puis « International ».
Assurez-vous que sous «Unités de mesure » vous avez sélectionné «Métrique » et « Altimètre en
pieds ». Cliquez sur OK pour valider.
Puis sur le menu Appareils, sélectionnez « Carburant et Charge Utile »
Cochez la case « Afficher la quantité de carburant en poids »
Messe à vide – c’est le poids de l’appareil sans le carburant la charge utile aussi appelée Masse à
Vide de Base
Charge Utile – c’est le poids combiné des passagers, membres d’équipage, bagages et du fret
Messe à vide + Charge Utile = Masse Carburant Zéro (Zero Fuel Weight)
78 698 + 10 759 = 89 457 kgs inférieur à la Masse Maximale Carburant Zéro (MZFW) de 92 000 kgs
MASSE CARBURANT ZERO + CARBURANT = POIDS BRUT (Gross Weight)
89 457 + 95 129 = 184 586 kgs
La masse maximale au décollage (MTOW) du Concorde étant environ 185 454 kgs
Notre poids brut de 184 586 kgs étant inférieur à la MTOW de 185 454, la quantité de carburant est
adéquate pour notre décollage
