Figure A12.2. Army Load Testing of Mooring Points.
A12.2.3.2.2. Number of Mooring Points at Each Parking Space. Each rotary-wing aircraft
parking space location will have six mooring points. Although some rotary-wing aircraft only
require four mooring points, six will be installed to provide greater flexibility for the types of
rotary-wing aircraft which can be moored at each parking space. The largest diameter rotor
blade of the facilities' assigned aircraft will be used for locating the mooring points within the
parking space. The allowable spacing and layout of the six mooring points is illustrated in
Figure A12.3. Parking space width and length dimensions are presented in Table 6.2 of
Chapter 6.
A12.2.3.2.3. Mooring Points on a Grid Pattern. A 6 meter by 6 meter [20 foot by 20 foot]
mooring point grid pattern throughout the apron for mass aircraft parking aprons will not be
authorized, unless economically and operationally justified in writing by the installation
