Every airplane type has a different weight.
Early heavier-than-air machines weighed just a few hundred pounds. In the early days of ultralights, the general agreement among enthusiasts was that the maximum empty weight of an ultralight was to be 150 pounds.
A Cessna Turbo Skylane's "typically equipped empty weight"--no fuel, no payload--is 2082 lbs; Takeoff weight--the maximum this plane can weigh in flight--is 3100 lbs. They figure that by the time you do all your checks and taxi out to the runway, you'll have burned off a couple gallons of fuel.
Pilatus' PC-12 is a very popular business turboprop. Its typically equipped empty weight is 6557 lbs; its takeoff weight is 10,450 lbs. A PC-12 has a LOT more power than a Cessna; Cessnas turn the prop with a little over 200hp, while PC-12s use 1200hp engines.
A Boeing 737-800 has a maximum takeoff weight of 187,700lbs. They don't give the typically equipped empty weight on those because no two of those planes are alike. If ABC Air offers "all business class service" and DEF Air offers "great rates to vacation destinations" because the whole plane is coach class using smaller seats and more of them, ABC Air's planes and DEF Air's planes will have different weights...and if GHI Air is a cargo carrier who has no seats on his plane at all, their planes will weigh something radically different from the first two airlines' jets.
Now if you REALLY want to get wild and crazy, Antonov Air's An-225 Mriyas (they have one and are working on a second) weigh 1.32 million lbs at maximum takeoff weight. They don't use this plane much; it's so expensive to fly it, it's actually cheaper to fly the load in two An-124s than to use one An-225!
Get ready for takeoff!
Aircraft have varied weights from about 800 pounds right up to 1,200,000 pounds.
It depends on the cargo airplane. A C-130 weighs 75,800 lbs empty. There are hundreds of these planes flying and they are very versatile. The An-225 weighs 628,315 lbs empty.
A airplane can way up to 250 lbs. If it weighs more there will be trouble.
OK, number 1 wihich airplane are you talking about, and do you have an F in math? use the caculator in your brain! or your computer!!!!
A airplane or train
it weighs a ton. The weight of a horse
Which air plane? A 747 weighs several hundred tonnes more than a Cessna, even with the engines removed
As heavy as they need to be, but it depends on the airplane: one C-17 wing weighs more than a whole Cessna.
10000 is 10 tons.
The same way anything floats, by displacing an amount of water that weighs as much as it does. Airplanes that are meant to float on water typically either have boat-like hulls or floats whose purpose is to displace enough water to allow the airplane to float.
Airplane? What airplane? My paper airplane wings weigh less than 8 grams.
Paper, because it is much lighter, and a foil airplane will take up much more mass.
Aviation gasoline (Avgas) weighs 6 lb. per gallon. Jet fuel (kerosene) weighs 6.84 lb. per gallon.
