What Does MTOW Stand For?
MTOW stands for Maximum Takeoff Weight
MTOW, or Maximum Takeoff Weight, refers to the maximum weight at which an aircraft is certified to take off. This weight includes the aircraft's operating weight, passenger load, cargo, and fuel. Adhering to MTOW is crucial for ensuring safe performance during takeoff and flight operations. Exceeding this limit can compromise an aircraft's ability to achieve necessary lift, control, and stability, thereby posing significant safety risks.
