Scope:

This Aerospace Recommended Practice provides recommendations for the design of aircraft engine transport devices, used to transport aircraft engines in wide-bodied aircraft. These devices are used in conjunction with pallets compatible with NAS 3610 Class II restraint requirements. The restraint system parameters and requirements are also to be met for those devices where the pallet structural capability is an integral part of the design. It is intended to specify minimum air and ground handling features to ensure optimum compatibility with designated aircraft application. The devices specified herein shall be designed primarily for air transport and alternately for surface transport, stowage and maintenance purposes. Design parameters specified for air transport of aircraft engine transport devices shall enable interline capability where feasible with respect to dimensions and loads.
