They don't have 250000 gallons on board. More like 35000. .but same disastrous result. Just be more accurate

Specs on an MD-11 state that its maximum fuel capacity is 38,615 gallons,or 258,721 pounds.
Remember that this flight was just about fully laden for a 8-8 1/2 hour flight plus reserves in case of a diversion. -
Sold by weight not by volume

Calculated by weight as well.
I would like to see the manifest as far as the calculated weight and balance,along with the performance figures (V1,Vr,Vef,etc.) that were calculated by the dispatch.
