Army Helicopter Internal Load Operations (FM 55-450-2)

Field Manual 55-450-2 will assist personnel who perform helicopter internal load missions. It will familiarize them with the tie-down equipment found in the Army inventory, acquaint them with the helicopter they will be loading and provide basic procedures for loading and rigging loads. Unit commanders should train selected groups of personnel on helicopter operations. Training should be geared to internal load requirements unique to each type of unit.
