III. Weight & Balance
1. Definitions (JAR-OPS 1.605...1.625)
Empty mass (EM): naked aircraft
Empty mass wet (EM wet): naked aircraft plus liquids (oil, etc)
Basic mass (BM): EM wet + extra equipment
Performance
Dry operating mass (DOM): BM + crew + crew bags + pantry
Operating mass (OM): DOM + take off fuel (TOF)
Take off mass (TOM): OM + traffic load (TL)
⇒ EM wet + equip. = BM
BM + crew + crew bags + pantry = DOM
DOM + TOF = OM
OM + TL = TOM
