The four cabin ceiling tie-downs have a weight limit of how many pounds?

• A. 4,000 lbs
• B. 3,000 lbs
• C. 2,000 lbs
• D. 5,000 lbs

Answer: (A)

Each of the four cabin ceiling tie-downs is rated at 4,000 pounds. The rating you’re testing here is the capacity of a single anchor point, not the total capacity of all four combined. This means you must keep the load on any one tie-down to 4,000 pounds or less, distributing heavier cargo across multiple tie-downs to stay within safe limits. Options like 3,000, 2,000, or 5,000 pounds don’t match the standard per-anchor rating: 5,000 would exceed the rating, while 3,000 and 2,000 underestimate the tie-down’s capability. If needed, you can use multiple tie-downs to handle larger loads, but each individual tie-down remains limited to 4,000 pounds.
