AKN / LD3-Extended — Air Cargo Container Dimensions & Weight
Same footprint as the AKE but a raised base frame, so usable volume is materially lower. Confusing the two overstates what fits in the hold.

Recorded as compatible with: B747, B777, B767, B787, A330, A350. Compatibility here means the compartment accepts this ULD’s section and the position exists — it is not a statement that the deck’s height limit allows a full-height build.
