hi there fellow loadmasters
according to boeing manual an single piece higher then 240cm and an certain weight is rigid,then a total of seven frangible plts should be placed right in front of it if on right side pos a/b (1/2) can be counted if on left side b(2) can not be used .so first rigid pallet can be put on pos jr. this rule is there to protect the upperdeck(flightdeck ) in case of 9g force. how come certain airlines do not have this in there loadcontrol manual? Talked to an certain chiefloadmaster dan he said" if 9g occur the plane is gone anyway" this rule is sometimes an pain in the butt as most of the time these are heavy pieces
5000-7500kg and would be nice to put this on top of the wing section thus not limiting the op. side. Does the company you handle/work for have this rule ? and how is this solved if you for example have to ferry 1 engine q7
then it says to strap for 9g ! don't even have that many points
regards frank:)
