The purpose of this report is to provide detailed data of the aircraft attachment points at each door position capable of loading pallets or containers on the current aircraft and on new aircraft, where known. Aircraft designers may utilize this information to enable future designs to fall into one of these categories with a view to keeping the range of elevator adaptor bars to the present level. The design of the aircraft attachment points is governed by sill design. Two type of attachment provisions for latch-on fittings are available as follows: 1) Special fittings in the vicinity of door latch fittings. 2) Special door latch fittings (spools) as approved for use by the airframe manufacturers. Ground equipment design objective should be to attempt to incorporate latch-on capability for 2 or more sill type on their adaptor bars.
