Narrative:

A very busy leg from anc to cdv resulted in my not properly calculating the maximum landing fuel and adjusting en route burn accordingly. I knew I had forgotten something but I was just too busy to catch it. 3 legs later, going from jnu to sea, I had time to review my earlier paperwork and I then realized I had landed 800 pounds heavier than my maximum allowable landing weight at cdv. Supplemental information from acn 409850: due to clear WX, direct routing, and a visual approach, fuel burn was less than anticipated. Consequently the aircraft was landed approximately 800 pounds over the allowable landing weight. We discovered this fact later in the day (after subsequent legs were flown). Because of the clear WX our vigilance was lowered and we forgot to check our landing weight while on the visual approach.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: B737 CREW LANDED OVER ACFT MAX STRUCTURAL WT LIMIT.

Narrative: A VERY BUSY LEG FROM ANC TO CDV RESULTED IN MY NOT PROPERLY CALCULATING THE MAX LNDG FUEL AND ADJUSTING ENRTE BURN ACCORDINGLY. I KNEW I HAD FORGOTTEN SOMETHING BUT I WAS JUST TOO BUSY TO CATCH IT. 3 LEGS LATER, GOING FROM JNU TO SEA, I HAD TIME TO REVIEW MY EARLIER PAPERWORK AND I THEN REALIZED I HAD LANDED 800 LBS HEAVIER THAN MY MAX ALLOWABLE LNDG WT AT CDV. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 409850: DUE TO CLR WX, DIRECT ROUTING, AND A VISUAL APCH, FUEL BURN WAS LESS THAN ANTICIPATED. CONSEQUENTLY THE ACFT WAS LANDED APPROX 800 LBS OVER THE ALLOWABLE LNDG WT. WE DISCOVERED THIS FACT LATER IN THE DAY (AFTER SUBSEQUENT LEGS WERE FLOWN). BECAUSE OF THE CLR WX OUR VIGILANCE WAS LOWERED AND WE FORGOT TO CHK OUR LNDG WT WHILE ON THE VISUAL APCH.
