Hi,

I'm training using a flight plan from KABQ to KASE.

I was investigating the landing performance of the Collins FMS, and I was surprised by the value in yellow "MLW", shown in Yellow at 13 tons. I was more expecting a structural limit of 17.2 tons about, and I was ok with my expected landing weight of 15.5 tons.

It was there that I realized the importance of the APPR PERF PAGE number 4, which makes the distinction between the limiting factors, and that 13.0 was a value calculated from the runway length limit at Aspen, wet conditions.

Next time, Il will plan more carefully, avoid fuel tankering, and remember that the Challenger isn't my Phenom 300, especially with anything else than DRY runways.

Always learning and amazed by the product depth.
