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.
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.
• By 1 July 2014, passenger and checked baggage
screening for all aircraft greater than 20,000 kg
operating a prescribed air service. Brought forward to 1
July 2012.

Hardened Cockpit Doors (HCDs)
• Screening measures and HCD have not be required
on closed charter or freighter aircraft.
• Due to the significant growth in larger aircraft being
used for closed charter operations in Australia and
the risk posed by freighter aircraft, the requirements
for HCD will be extended to all aircraft >10,750 kg
MTOW.
