PREPARATION OF C-133B FOR LOADING MINUTEMAN SSCBM,

Abstract

The concept and procedure is presented for positioning a C-133B airplaload and unload a Minuteman missile in its Shipping and Storage Container - Ballistic Missile (SSCBM). The benefits of Materials Handling Support System 463L equipment (per MIL-C-27843) installed in the airplane are utilized in this special cargo handling mission. To prevent settling or lifting of the airplane during load transfer, a set of jacks will supplement the airplane's landing gear. When supporting the airplane with jacks, elevation and attitude are governed by measur ing elevations from ground to floor line at three places: the forward edge of the side cargo door and the left and right sides of the aft end of the cargo floor. Thus, the relative positioning required between airplanes and SSCBM trailer is established and maintained.
