What is the maximum landing weight (MLW) for the CRJ 200?

The maximum landing weight (MLW) for the CRJ 200 is indeed 47,000 lbs. This limit is crucial for maintaining safe operational parameters for landing. The MLW is established based on structural integrity and performance characteristics of the aircraft. Landing at or below this weight ensures that the aircraft’s landing gear, brakes, and other systems can safely handle the stresses associated with landing maneuvers, which include deceleration and potential go-arounds.

Exceeding the MLW can lead to excessive aerodynamic and structural loads that may compromise safety, leading to damage or failures during or after the landing phase. Therefore, understanding and adhering to the MLW is essential for compliance with operational guidelines and maintaining the aircraft's safety standards.
