| Jun 27, 2015 at 2:14 | comment | added | Terry | From a historical standpoint, back in the 1990s, and especially on 747-100/200 cargo flights, it was common to "hide fuel" by specifying more taxi fuel than you knew you would use. Being a few thousand pounds over MTOW was not considered a problem. | |
| Jun 26, 2015 at 12:43 | comment | added | CGCampbell | @JayCarr I understand. I've considered it and have added a body edit. I'm leaving the title alone, because I do expect that the answer is yes. What I'm looking for is why and what then. If you can think of a 'better' title, please, do edit it. I'll roll back if I don't like the change. | |

| Jun 25, 2015 at 21:02 | comment | added | Jae Carr | @DavidRicherby That's true up to a point, but the title question is pretty far away from what the intent of the question is. All I'm saying is there are people who may want to ask that exact question, or who may be looking for the answer that exact question, and having this question have that title makes it a little harder for them. | |
| Jun 25, 2015 at 20:59 | comment | added | David Richerby | @JayCarr I think the title's fine. Although the answer to the title question is trivially "yes", the title is only intended to be a guide to what the question is about. If it was always possible to make the title exactly describe the question, you wouldn't need anything else. | |

| Jun 25, 2015 at 19:52 | comment | added | Jae Carr | You might edit the title of the question to make it a bit more specific, as the title questions stands it's very general (and the answer is quite clearly "yes", given no constraints). | |
