More Information
Summary:An improved crew rest area for a freighter airplane. The crew rest structure extends into the stay out zone between the crew or supernumerary accommodations and cargo areas and has one of more collapsible or crushable structures. The collapsible structures allow the areas in the stay out zones to collapse or be displaced when subjected to crash loads without impinging on the crew or supernumerary seating areas. The collapsible wall members or panels can be hinged, slidable, bendable in an accordion-type manner, or the like.
