DOW (Dry Operating Weight) in aviation refers to the weight of an aircraft when it is empty and without any fuel or payload. It includes the weight of the structure, systems, equipment, and furnishings of the aircraft. DOW is used to calculate the aircraft's performance, fuel calculations, and maximum payload capacity.
