I wonder if anyone has a diagram showing the range vs payload on the 737-700ER? What I am looking for is the very same that Embraer shows for their E-Jets.
Is there a formula to calculate the maximum range vs payload on any kind of airplane?

Thank you for providing me with that link. From how I read the range chart there is almost no way that one can operate the 737-700ER for more than 3000Nm profitable. Does that make sense, or am I not reading it correctly? The Boeing website states that the 737-700ER has a range of more than 5000Nm. It also seems that on routes with more than 3000Nm range the 737-900ER can carry more payload.

Can I ask how you came to that conclusion?
The ACAP document for the 737 series hasn't been updated with the charts for the 73GER yet, it hasn't been updated since October last year. IIRC, the 73G will be closer to the BBJ (with aux tanks installed) than the 737W, so you could compare those two.
Also, remember, the chart show OEW plus payload, not just payload. In other words, since the 739ER has a higher OEW, it can't fly the same distance with the same payload.

I am a little embarrassed to say that I thought every document had the name and payload written on top of the chart. This gave me a rather wrong conclusion
