Does a plane dump its fuel before it lands?

Depends on the amount of fuel. Every plane has a different maximum landing weight. Fuel is very heavy stuff - usually almost half a jet's weight on takeoff. Commercial flights are calculated so that by the time the jet gets to its destination, its weight has been reduced by the burning of this fuel, and it is perfectly safe to land. In an emergency, though, if an incident happens just after takeoff, a plane may have to make a fast return to its departure airport. However, it is still full of the fuel for its planned flight, and therefore over its max landing weight. If the plane is still flyable, the pilot will perform multiple spiralling descending circles, burning as much fuel as possible until it is safe to land. The pilot can also physically open the fuel tanks and dump his fuel out the back.
