MODEL 208B G1000
PREVENTION OF MOVEMENT
In special loading arrangements which allow the
carriage of passengers as well as cargo behind the
barrier in the passenger version, all cargo must be
secured to prevent movement in the five principal
directions and provide the same crash load
restraint as though a barrier was not installed using
the maximum rated loads specified for loading
without a barrier. In this arrangement, cargo
placement must allow for movement and exit of the
passengers. The pilot must be responsible to make
sure proper load restraint in all loadings.
Refer to the Typical Cargo Restraint Methods figure for diagrams of
typical cargo tie-down methods for prevention of movement. Also, the
cargo partition nets available for the airplane can be installed at
Fuselage Stations 188.7, 246.8, 282.0, 307.0 and 332.0 to divide the
cabin cargo area into compartments. If the partitions are used, they
must be used in conjunction with the cargo barrier. Since partitions are
not designed to withstand crash loads, they cannot be considered as a
replacement for the barrier. Each partition will withstand the forward
and aft operational loads applied during takeoff, flight, and landing by
any two zones forward or aft of the partition. Use of the partitions will
allow loading of the zones without tying down cargo if the load density
is no more than 7.9 pounds per cubic foot and the zone is more than
75% full. Cargo loading that does not meet these requirements must be
secured to the cabin floor.
LOADING OF PIERCING OR PENETRATING ITEMS
Regardless of cargo location, items of a piercing or penetrating nature
shall be located so that other cargo is loaded between the barrier/nets,
cargo partitions, and rear wall and the piercing or penetrating items to
provide a buffer. The density of this cargo shall be sufficient to restrain
the piercing or penetrating items from passing through the barrier/nets,
partitions, and rear wall under critical emergency landing conditions. If
the condition cannot be complied with, the piercing or penetrating items
shall be tied down separately.
