Inbound,

Not sure where you got the MLW figure from. Won't be much fuel in the tanks on a landing based on your MZFW. MLW is 7110.

MLW 6350 is for the Metro 3. 700 lbs/hr total fuel burn on two engines correct may decrease to 600lbs/hr in the cruise at altitude. MZFW of 6305 is for the 3. Metro 23 is a 3 on steroids, heavier, faster more powerful. Same endorsement but a few differences, such a oil filter bypass indicator to check and bleeds Hi, Low, Off instead of On/Off. De ice boots inboard of the engines I think. Different SAS system check.

If you are Metro endorsed but haven't flown the 23 before it's well worth getting an instructor to give you a session on the differences. Can't remember them all off hand as it's been a while since I last flew one. Thank God.
