What is the capacity of an LD-2 unit load device?

The capacity of an LD-2 unit load device is accurate as it typically holds approximately 30 bags or 2000 lbs of mail or freight. This unit is specifically designed for optimal loading on aircraft, ensuring a balance between capacity and weight considerations. The LD-2 is commonly used in various aircraft, making it essential for efficient cargo transport.

The specifics of the LD-2's capacity allow ramp agents to understand how many bags can be accommodated while maintaining safe loading practices and weight limits established by airlines. This knowledge aids in the smooth operation of loading processes, facilitating timely departures and reducing the risk of overloading.

Other options provided either overstate the capacity or reference weight limits that are not characteristic of the LD-2’s specifications, which is crucial when handling various types of cargo on flights.
