    ATA cases are reusable flight cases that meet specifications set by the Air Transport Association for durability. They are constructed of laminated plywood, ABS, or fiberglass panels with recessed hardware and foam lining. ATA cases are tested for drop impact, vibration, and other stresses to certify them for carrying expensive equipment on 100 or more flights. Common configurations include hinged or lift-off lids, with or without wheels, and ATA cases are used to transport a wide variety of audio, video, lighting, and other professional equipment.

    Testing?
    • ATA lists (many) test requirements.

    • “Respectable” manufacturers build cases that comply with
    material requirements and then have them tested to the
    appropriate standards.
    • Independent labs then issued Certificate of “ATA Approved”
    • According to some sources, no body issues these certs
    anymore.
    • Case Tech had their “heavy duty” construction ATA style case
    tested at an ISTA lab long ago and it passed.
