1 Scope

1.1 This International Standard covers the minimum design and operational testing requirements for general purpose, base-restrained containers exclusively intended for the main or upper deck cargo compartments of main line civil transport aircraft, capable of being used by either airlines or shippers and requiring an airworthiness authority approval (certification).

NOTE 1 The metric equivalents for dimensions have been rounded up or down to the nearest millimetre, except in critical dimensions. Masses have been rounded up to the nearest kilogram and forces have been rounded up to the nearest 10 N.

NOTE 2 Though nothing technically prevents their being used for baggage, main deck containers are generally used only for carriage of freight.
