ABSTRACT:
A holder (48, 49) for the cargo container (36) is supported so as to be able to rotate on a carrier frame (31) that is to be attached to an aircraft, in particular a helicopter, the container (48, 49) is connected with two fluid-drive double-acting cylinder-piston units (40, 41) that are mounted on the arms (37, 38) of the carrier (31), by means of which it together with the container (36) can be rotated. The container (36) is connected through the connector elements (54, 55) with the retainer plates (48, 49) so as to be releasable, so that the container that is brought back empty by an aircraft returning from one trip can be replaced by a container that has been filled or charged meantime, so that the aircraft can take-off once again almost immediately.
