certified weight

An aircraft purchase price is, typically, a function of the certified weight purchased.

As a result of several modifications being made to the locomotive's construction, enabling it to pull additional units, the new certified weight became 192 tonnes.

However, the wrestler may only return to that certified weight class according to the weight-loss plan of the National Wrestling Coaches Association.

An operator may purchase a certified weight below the maximum design weights because many of the airport operating fees are based on the aircraft AFM maximum allowable weight values.

The pilot, in the right seat, took off in a driving rainstorm, in the thin air of an unfamiliar high-altitude airport, with the fuel-air mixture improperly set and the plane carrying almost a hundred pounds over its certified weight limit.

If a wrestler does gain weight over his certified weight class and wrestles at two weight classes above it, he forfeits his previous lowest weight class for the one weight class below where he wrestled.

If a contestant wishes to weigh-in and wrestle at only one weight class above his certified weight class and later return to his lowest certified weight class, he may do so.
