JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 Maximum Take-Off Weight – MTOW MTOW is the most appropriate trigger for a number of reasons: Consistent across aircraft regardless of method of propulsion. Airframe, fuel load, passenger and baggage weight are all considered. MTOW cannot be altered unless the aircraft is recertified by the manufacturer.

9. JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 MTOW From 1 July 2010, passenger and checked baggage screening for all aircraft greater than 30,000 kg operating Regular Passenger Transport services.
