LD-7 (AKH) Air ULD dimensions

A LD-7 (AKH) Air ULD measures 3.17 m (10′5″) long, 2.23 m (7′4″) wide and 1.63 m (5′4″) high inside — about 11.5 m³ (406 ft³) of usable space, with a maximum gross weight up to 4,626 kg (10,199 lb).

IATA LD-7 (AKH) — a large lower-deck pallet/container combination unit. Contoured roof curves in toward the top corners on both long sides to follow the fuselage; less pronounced than the LD-3's taper.

IATA figures: the weight column is maximum GROSS weight (tare included) and the volume is the IATA rated envelope. ContainerMath models the contoured shell conservatively, so a real plan fills slightly less.

Internal (usable) figures, not external. Capacity is the geometric interior volume — real cargo never fills 100% of it, because pallets, dunnage and irregular shapes leave void space.

How much of this air cargo uld will your cargo fill?

The table above is the box. What matters is how your cargo sits in it — how many units fit, where the weight lands, and whether you run out of floor or payload first. Enter your cargo and get the answer, free and without signing up.
