A service cart (10) for an aircraft is disclosed with a housing of carbon fiber reinforced composites forming a multi-compartment carrier, the carrier adapted to hold four standard airline meal carriers (17). The cart (10) includes at least a pair of cap doors (15) at opposite ends of the cart (10), each cap door (15) pivoting approximately 270 degrees to bear against a side of the cart (10), and a plurality of guides (21) on inner walls of the multi-compartment for retaining the standard airline meal carriers (17). To prevent the doors (15) of the cart (10) from inadvertently opening, the cart (10) also may include a redundant paddle latch system for each door. |
