General Requirements for Noncertified Cargo/Baggage Containers

2018-10-18
CURRENT
AS1677D
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers the design, fabrication, performance and operational testing requirements for lower deck containers for use in main line aircraft which do not require airworthiness certification when loaded under the conditions of compartment restraint and in accordance with the aircraft's Weight and Balance Manual and/or, where applicable according to the aircraft type's approved Weight and Balance Manual, AS36100A or NAS 3610 equivalent base plate restraint for these containers. Most sizes of containers covered by this document (base sizes K, L, P, and Q) cannot physically be loaded and latched on aircraft main deck cargo systems. Base size A and M containers can, but are not allowed on aircraft main decks, which do not accept non-certified units. Accordingly, all containers covered by this document are to be used/installed exclusively in aircraft lower deck compartments.

Air and Air/Surface (Platform) Cargo Pallet Nets

2018-10-18
CURRENT
AS1131C
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) provides dimensional, structural and environmental requirements for pallet nets to be used in conjunction with 2.44 m (8 ft) wide pallets described in AS1130. The pallet/net combination are used in freighter versions of certificated aircraft equipped to provide restraint to pallets tested to the requirements of NAS 3610 Class II restraint system. The minimum essential criteria are identified by use of the key word "shall". Recommended criteria are identified by use of the key word "should", and while not mandatory, are considered to be primary importance in providing serviceable, economical, and practical air transport pallet nets. Deviation from recommended criteria should occur only after careful consideration, extensive testing, and thorough service evaluation have shown alternate methods to be satisfactory.

Cargo Restraint Straps - Design Criteria and Testing Methods

2017-05-08
CURRENT
AS5385D
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) aims at identifying the design criteria and testing methods adequate to guarantee the ultimate load and operational dependability of cargo restraint strap assemblies with a typical 22250 N (5000 lbf) rated ultimate tension load capability, as used by the airline industry in order to restrain cargo on board civil transport aircraft during flight: a cargo loaded and tied down onto airworthiness certified air cargo pallets, themselves restrained into aircraft lower deck or main/upper deck cargo systems and meeting the requirements of NAS 3610 or AS36100, or b non-unitized individual pieces of cargo, or pieces of, cargo placed onto an unrestrained (“floating”) pallet into either lower deck or main deck containerized cargo compartments of an aircraft.

Air Cargo Unit Load Devices - Performance Requirements and Test Parameters

2016-06-06
HISTORICAL
AS36100B
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) defines the minimum performance requirements and test parameters for air cargo unit load devices requiring approval of airworthiness for installation in an approved aircraft cargo compartment and restraint system that complies with the cargo restraint requirements of Title 14 CFR Part 25, except for the 9.0g forward ultimate inertia force of § 25.561 (b)(3)(ii).

Air Mode General Purposes Containers

2014-03-25
CURRENT
AS4041B
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the basic requirements for the design, construction and testing of air mode 2.44 m × 2.44 m (8 ft × 8 ft) cross-section containers. These containers are to be used exclusively in conjunction with the air mode in freighter versions of wide-body commercial transport aircraft. Air mode containers will normally be on aircraft roller conveying systems and/or on similarly equipped ancillary ground handling devices. Similar requirements for air/surface (intermodal) containers are provided in AS832.
