DH 106 Comet 3 Payload Limited?

[Colsie123]

Hi All,

I have just planned a route flying from KONT-KEWR flying a the DH 106 Comet 3. On the way from KONT-KEWR the aircraft is not limited by payload, however on the return journey it is showing as limited to 34 passengers.

I have been looking at the range and payload, runway length and demand and can not for the life of me understand why this is limited. Does anyone have ideas? I have attached everything I think would be relevant for this.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,

Colin

It's probably due head winds. When setting-up the flight, check the small question mark next to the return sector. It will tell you the range needed to make up for the head winds.

Thanks Mike. Didn't know about that, and it has answered my question. Bloody winds!
