- Contexto
- Many aircraft are not structurally able to withstand a landing at maximum take-off mass. In the event of an emergency requiring an overweight landing, it is sometimes necessary to dump fuel into the atmosphere,although this is a rare occurrence. Air Traffic Control (ATC) establishes specific areas where fuel can be dumped in case of an emergency.
