Effects of Hanging Loads (e.g., GOH) on ULD Performance
AIR4359
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides information on the subject of Air Mode containers used for transporting "Hanging Loads" such as Garment-On-Hangers (GOH), or other roof supported cargo. It suggests considerations and recommendations for roof loaded containers to transport hanging loads efficiently and safely by air and to protect the aircraft floor and cargo system from damage due to overload conditions.
Rationale: During presentation made at SAE meeting No. 121 (Cologne + Web Conference), Ulf Hartmann recommended to stabilize AIR4359A. Both Airbus and Boeing stated that they have no capacity available to provide the required data of their new aircraft types. It had however been incorrectly recorded in the minutes of meeting No. 121 for the document to be revised. I would now like to stabilize this document.
