Hi,
So I was trying to fly with the a330 (EDDF-KLAX) I was on fuelplanner and even my aircraft had fuel for 16 hours. But it was so overweight that the climb performance was so terrible that my aircraft loses speed with +1000 fpm. And ETE TO dest said I don’t have enough fuel.
So, what aircraft can I use for this route?
Boeing triple seven or 787 always works for me. Not really a flier of Airbus so can’t answer for Airbus.
The A330 is known to be an underpreformer so you may have had to use a lighter load of PAX and Cargo. The A359, 787, and quite a few other aircraft should be able to do this route with ease though.
You should step climb in the A330
I always do stepcliming. But 1 minute after takeoff the climb performance is just terrible.
Then I will go with the a359
I would use the A359. 👍
Did you rotate too early?
Yeah, i was doing that already.
no, i rotate at 200 kts
Hmm? Rotating at 200kts?
