Storage compartment floor limitations are up to how many pounds?

• A. 125 lbs
• B. 250 lbs
• C. 100 lbs
• D. 375 lbs

Answer: (A)

Storage compartment floor load is rated at 125 pounds per compartment. This limit protects the floor structure and keeps the aircraft within safe loading and center-of-gravity limits. Exceeding 125 pounds in one compartment can stress floor beams and mounts, cause deflection or damage, and potentially affect handling or equipment clearance. If heavier items must be carried, distribute the weight across multiple compartments or secure loads to the aircraft’s structure while staying within each compartment’s rating.
