Abstract: A cargo barrier net for an aircraft includes a net mesh, defined by a plurality of net strands, a securing members coupled to one of the net strands, for securing the cargo barrier net across an internal space of an aircraft; and a tear webbing located between the securing members and the net strand. The tear webbing is configured to tear progressively when a load is applied to it, thereby increasing the effective length of net strand to which it is coupled and redistributing the load to other net strands in the cargo barrier net.

Abstract: A cargo barrier net (2) for an aircraft comprising: a net mesh, defined by a plurality of net strands (4, 6); a plurality of securing means (14) attached to at least some of the net strands (4, 6), for securing the cargo barrier net (2) across an internal space of an aircraft; and at least one tear webbing (18, 30) located between a securing means (14) and a net strand (4, 6), wherein the tear webbing (18, 30) is configured to tear progressively when a load is applied to it, thereby increasing the effective length of net strand (4, 6) to which it is attached and redistributing the load to other net stands (4, 6) in the cargo barrier net (2).
