This SAE Aerospace Standard specifies the dimensional, design criteria, fabrication, performance, operational, environmental, and testing requirements for interline pallets requiring airworthiness approval for loading onto civil transport aircraft equipped with NAS3610/AS36100 restraint systems and using pallet nets meeting the requirements of AS1492. Type II/2 covers NAS3610/AS36100 code sizes. Type III pallets have been removed from this SAE Aerospace Standard revision.
Rationale:
AS1491B has been revised from AS1491A in both format and wording to be harmonized with ISO 4171( ). Reference to AS36100 in addition to NAS3610 has been added.
Pallet sizes Q and S designated in the prior revision of this specification as Type III pallets were added and are now covered by AS36100 as Type 2 pallets. All references to Type III pallets along with their performance and test requirements contained in the previous revision of this SAE Aerospace Standard have been removed.
