On two occassions following the declared emergency Flight Control requested information on fuel weight and the number of passengers on board. Since the aircraft had only just taken off - both pieces of information could have been better obtained from Flight Ops. As an ex airline pilot I am fully aware of the number of items on a shutdown emergency landing procedure - perhaps Flight Control need a spin in the simulator to develop their situational awareness as to what information is critical at such a time.
