TSAAS Air Assault Phase 2 Challenge 2026 – Soar to Success and Conquer the Skies!

Two pieces of Type III nylon are used on the fill port because this component needs a secure, stable lash that resists movement in all directions during transport. Using two strands allows you to create a robust tie-down that wraps or loops around the fill port assembly and ties back to the securing point, distributing the load and reducing the chance of loosening or cap displacement under vibration or jostling.

Other items listed don’t require this specific two-strand tie-down pattern for their tie-downs, either because they’re secured differently or because they aren’t load-bearing points in the same way. That’s why the fill port is the item that uses two pieces of Type III nylon as part of the tie-downs.
