Combi 1846790 216301338 2008-06-01T01:00:18Z SmackBot 433328 Date the maintenance tags or general fixes {{otheruses|Kombi}} {{Expand|date=May 2008}} In [[commercial aviation]], the term '''combi''' refers to versions of various [[aircraft]] that can be used for either passenger, as an [[airliner]] would, or cargo duties, as a [[cargo aircraft|freighter]] would, and often have a partition in the cabin to allow both uses at once. Combi aircraft typically feature an oversized cargo door, as well as tracks on the cabin floor to allow the seats to be added or removed quickly. Typically, configured for both passenger and cargo duty, the passenger compartment is pressurized to a higher pressure, to prevent fumes from cargo entering the passenger area. In the wake of the [[South African Airways Flight 295]] crash, [[Boeing 747|''747 Combi''s]] were made impractical due to increase demands of new regulations. <ref> {{cite episode|title=Fanning the Flames|series=Mayday|airdate=21-05-2008}} </ref> ==Citations== <references/> ==See also== * [[passenger aircraft]] * [[cargo aircraft]] {{aero-stub}}
