We bug a diffeent approach speed for each weight.

How are the weights delivered up to you guys in the control room? And
the weight's distribution?

It seems like the handlers just jam whatever they've got on the cart
in the hole.

Is the stuff weighed and put onto the carts in a certain way and then
loaded according to some train-oriented protocol?

I just knock off a few knots if I'm
light, basically.

And you know you're light because you have the fuel left, the "empty
weight", and the number of bodies plus estimate (or weighed) total
baggage?

Just curious how it works.
