Narrative:

Approximately 45 min after takeoff central load control sent us an amended load close-out with an adjusted passenger count, takeoff weight and cg/trim tab setting. Coming after takeoff there was nothing to do except note the fact that we did not have accurate weight and balance, as required, for takeoff. The FAA inspector giving us a routine check noted the same. Perhaps company procedure need to be changed to get a passenger count from the crew as opposed to relying on passenger service agents.
