What is the maximum landing weight (MLW) for the ERJ 175?

The maximum landing weight (MLW) for the ERJ 175 is 80,000 lbs. This specification is critical for ensuring the safety and structural integrity of the aircraft during landing operations. Exceeding this weight could place undue stress on the landing gear and airframe, potentially leading to unsafe landing conditions and increased wear on the aircraft.

Understanding the MLW is essential for flight planning and ensuring that the aircraft is within the safe operating limits prior to landing. It helps pilots and operations personnel to accurately calculate fuel needs, passenger loads, and cargo, making efficient and safe use of the aircraft possible. The assigned limit reflects the aircraft’s design and tested performance to ensure optimal safety during landing scenarios.
