Abstract

In the cargo hold of an aircraft, a cargo deck is known on which several mounting profiles are installed in the long direction of the aircraft. In the mounting profiles functional elements, in particular rollers, ball elements, latches, power drive units (PDUs) or the like can be mounted. In the present invention it is proposed that the mounting profiles be disposed at identical distances from one another over a width of the cargo space, so that identical structural floor elements can be mounted between them and will fit exactly.
