maximum landing weight
Definição1
The greatest weight an aircraft is allowed to have for landing. It is often less than the maximum takeoff weight, and the pilot may have to dump fuel or jettison some stores before executing a landing shortly after takeoff. A landing with a higher than maximum weight may require a check of the aircraft structure, especially the undercarriages.

Contexto
Aircraft wheels are designed with the aircraft maximum operating weight, maximum landing weight, expected landing conditions and maximum performance stopping limitations in mind. In their normal operating environment, aircraft wheels are not expected to last the life of the aircraft and may be time or cycle limited.
In addition, the maximum landing weight was exceeded, pre-flight planning was incorrect, weather minima were ignored, and the DH procedure was not followed (28 November 1986).
