Based on the information that you've received from the airport, you'll need to answer the following questions before you can take off:
3. Your plane weighs 284 tons, and the giraffes weigh 16 tons. Will the plane with the giraffes loaded weigh more or less than the maximum cargo/passenger weight for the planes at this airport?
4. Your plane with the giraffes loaded needs 15,000 feet of runway to be able to take off. Will your plane be able to take off from the shortest runway at your local airport? Will it be able to take off from the longest runway? If not, how many more feet of runway would be needed?
