Recall the information listed in the FMS Block of the WDR. Which item is included?

Takeoff Weight and Takeoff CG are the values stored in the FMS Block of the Weight Data Record. This block provides the takeoff weight (TOWT) and its corresponding center of gravity (TOCG). The takeoff weight is derived by subtracting the taxi fuel from the ramp weight (RMW): TOWT = RMW − taxi fuel. This makes the TOWT field the key performance parameter used by the FMS for takeoff calculations. Other listed items refer to different data sets—fuel totals with expected taxi fuel, per-tank fuel quantities, or planned gate weight—not the FMS Block’s takeoff weight and CG.
