Aircraft weight is important not just for calculating things like how much runway, thrust, and fuel an aircraft will need, but also for other things like calculating how much they disturb the air by creating vortices. These vortices can be dangerous for other aircraft flying in their wake.

The exhaust coming out of aircraft engines looks pretty dangerous, generating huge amounts of thrust and pushing back tons of hot air. After one aircraft lands, the tailwind pushes the vortices forward into the runways touchdown zone. This distance is measured when the preceding aircraft is over the runway threshold.

Understanding the Basics of Flight Aerodynamics 101 Flying a small plane revolves around understanding four key forces: lift, thrust, drag, and weight. Thrust, produced by the engine, propels the plane forward, overcoming drag, which is the resistance caused by air. This skill enhances your ability to fly safely and seamlessly.

1) High Roundout Sometimes when the airplane appears to temporarily stop moving downward, the roundout has been made too rapidly and the airplane is flying level, too high above the runway. This would result in the airplane stalling and dropping hard onto the runway. Porpoising can also be caused by improper airspeed control.
