1.	A flight is carrying 130 passengers over a distance of 990km with a seating capacity of 140 and a yield of 7.9. Calculate the load factor.(a) 90%(b) 92.86%(c) 89.556%(d) 67.35%I have been asked this question during an interview.Question is from Fixed-Wing Aircraft topic in portion Fixed-Wing Aircraft Performance of Aircraft Performance
Answer» The correct answer is (B) 92.86% Best explanation: The answer is 92.86%. Given number of PASSENGERS travelling = 130, seating capacity=140 and a yield of 7.9. We know percentage LOAD factor=\(\frac{no. \, of \, passengers \,travellingdistance \,travelled}{no. \,of \, seatsdistance \, travelled}\) x 100% On substituting the VALUES, Load factor=\(\frac{130990}{140990}\) x 100% Load factor=92.86%.
