ABSTRACT:
In external cargo carrying helicopters single or multiple point suspension argo slings are attached to cargo hooks on the undersides of helicopter fuselages. It is common practice to use such helicopters to transport motorized vehicles with those cargo slings, but transporting such vehicles presents a rigging problem. This method of transporting such vehicles is frequently impractical, either because of the excessive number of sorties necessary to transport the vehicles, or because when two vehicles are carried at once they bump against each other. By this invention a cargo adapter is provided by which two vehicles can be carried without bumping against each other during flight.
