Q

What is the purpose of a sling load

A

Cargo compartment cannot hold the load

Load exceeds the internal load limitations

Groundcrew must load and unload Cargo at once

Q

What are some of the limitations of sling load

A

Weight of the load exceeding Aircrafts capability

load instability during flight may restrict Aircrafts airspeed or maneuvering capabilities

Adverse weather or darkness may limit sling load operations

Atmospheric conditions such as (hat) humidity, altitude, temperatures, affects the helicopters left capabilities

Limited number of helicopters available for sling mission

Landing site surface such as dust snow debris limit pilots visibility

Landing site must be increased during hours of darkness or reduced visibility
