A

Seat Occupied Cargo (SOC) is referred to as Hold 0, but a
“O” designator does not appear in this field. The presence of SOC is indicated in the next field (below). The weight of SOC is included in this field in the TOTAL column, e.g. “810”
less “510 in Hold 4” means that SOC = 810-510 or 300kg in
total.
