aircraft pallet
pallet
unit load device consisting of a flat platlorm with flat undersurface of standard dimensions on which goods are assembled and secured before being loaded as a unit on to the aircraft and which interfaces directly with the aircraft handling and restraint system
NOTE — See aircraft unit load device.
aircraft pallet net net
wobbing or rope net for restraining load on to an aircraft pallet
NOTES
1 II may also be used in conjunction with an igloo.
2 See eircreft unit load device.
aircraft unit load device
assembly of components comprising one of either an aircraft pallet and pallet net, an aircraft pallet and pallet net over an igloo, or an aircraft container
NOTE Thc purposc of tho unit is to enable individual pieces of cargo to be assembled into a standard-sized unit to facilitate rapid loading on to aircraft having compatible handling and restraint systems which interface directly with the unit.
