Wing Loading From Landing Consideration Calculator

Wing loading ($W/S$) from Landing consideration is a parameter that designers and engineers use to evaluate an aircraft’s performance during the takeoff phase. It relates the aircraft’s weight ($W$) to the wing’s reference area ($S$) and helps determine the wing’s ability to generate sufficient lift for takeoff. The formula for calculating wing loading from take-off consideration is as follows:

​

• $W/S$ is the wing loading for Landing consideration (typically in pounds per square foot, psf, or newtons per square meter, N/m²).
• $W$ is the aircraft’s weight (in pounds or newtons).
• $S$ is the wing’s reference area (in square feet or square meters).
