1.1 This International Standard specifies the functional, performance and safety requirements for a vehicle equipped with a liftable van body designed for:

  • cabin resupply and servicing, and/or
  • loading and unloading of catering equipment and supplies

on all large capacity aircraft types commonly in service in international civil air transport with a cabin door sill height equal to or exceeding 2,54 m (100 in) over the ground.

1.2 The intent of this International Standard is not to specify equipment design, but rather to define minimum functional and performance requirements and highlight those criteria which are known to be essential to an efficient and safe operation on civil transport aircraft in the environment of international airports by aircraft and vehicle manufacturers as well as airlines and catering agencies.

1.3 It shall be applied with due reference to national governmental regulations of the country where the vehicle is to be operated. The main though not exclusive areas in which such national regulations may be more stringent than the requirements of this International Standard are:

  • sanitary requirements regarding design, cleaning and disinfection of vehicles used to carry food for human consumption,
  • stability and other safety requirements applicable to elevating equipment carrying personnel in the elevated position.
