.. _SIT153: THE CHALLENGES OF TRANSPORTING SPECIAL LOADS IN MILITARY AND CIVIL AIRCRAFT =============== | PEDRO JOSÉ FURLANI VIDAL - EMBRAER/INSTITUTO TECNOLÓGICO DE AERONÁUTICA (ITA) - https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8543-8172 | TORBEN ALLERT - EMBRAER - | REBECCA TELES PONTE DE LIMA - EMBRAER - Abstract ---------- Military and civil air logistic missions may require the transportation of special cargo, that is, items that cannot be restrained to military or civil pallets per the according specification and that were not conceived to support aircraft vibration and load factors associated with different flight phases. Odd-sized loads are a common example of special cargo that require alternative restriction methods for a safe transportation. The objective of this work is to present different aspects and requirements to be considered for the restraining and transportation of special loads in military and civil air logistic missions, supporting the decision-making to transport it based on the benefits and the risks of the operation, illustrated by incident examples associated with poor special cargo conditioning inside the aircraft. | Keywords: Cargo Restraint - Airfreight Requirements - Incidents Download ---------- `Full text available here `_ Citing ---------- .. code-block:: bibtex @inproceedings{SIT153, author = {PEDRO JOSÉ FURLANI VIDAL; TORBEN ALLERT; REBECCA TELES PONTE DE LIMA}, title = {THE CHALLENGES OF TRANSPORTING SPECIAL LOADS IN MILITARY AND CIVIL AIRCRAFT}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2022 Air Transportation Symposium}, series = {SITRAER 2022}, year = {2022}, pages = {428-438}, publisher = {SBTA - Brazilian Air Transportation Research Society}, address = {São José dos Campos, Brazil,} } `Save link as to get the .Bib file `_ License ---------- .. code-block:: bash The contents of this article can be used given that the authors are cited.
