Air cargo is any property carried or to be carried in an aircraft. Air cargo comprises air freight, air express and airmail.〔Allaz, Camille (2005): The History of Air Cargo and Airmail from the 18th Century, p. 8〕 ==Aircraft types== Cargo can be transported by passenger, cargo or combi aircraft: * Passenger aircraft use the spare volume in the airplane's baggage hold (the "belly") that is not being used for passenger luggage - a common practice used by passenger airlines, who additionally transport cargo on scheduled passenger flights. - this practice is known as ''Belly Cargo''. Cargo can also be transported in the passenger cabin as hand-carry by an “on-board courier”. * Cargo aircraft are dedicated for the job - they carry freight on the main deck and in the belly by means of nose-loading or side loading. * Combi aircraft carries cargo on the main deck behind the passengers’ area with side loading and in the belly. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「air cargo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
