It isn't an issue for smaller planes (A320, 737), but larger planes (such as 747, 777, A340, A380) usually have a lower maximum landing weight than their takeoff weight. If an emergency happens early in flight they usually have to dump fuel to reduce weight before they can land. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_dumping |
