Recorded as compatible with: B747-8, B767-200, B767-300, B767-400ER, B777-200LR, B777-300ER, B777-200, B787-8, B787-9, B787-10, A300-600, A310. 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.
