Rationale: This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) was prepared in order to replace former SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice ARP6022, developed in order to specify basic design, performance, and testing requirements for cargo tie-down accessories known as “Cargo Stoppers.” Sub-committee AGE-2A determined that, because these devices were used as part of tie-down arrangements meeting airworthiness criteria, they should be covered by a standard rather than a recommendation. Revision A updates the references which became obsolete subsequent to publication of TSO-C202. AS6554A has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE Five-Year Review policy.
