Abstract
A system and method for determining length of load sling assembly in an aircraft, includes receiving, with a processor, information via one or more sensors regarding a load length during a delivery and descent state, the load length comprising length of a load sling assembly and a load height; controlling, with the processor, a minimum altitude of operation of the aircraft that ensures that the load does not touch the ground or obstacles during one or more of a flight plan, during decent, or during delivery; determining, with the processor, when a load has touched a ground in response to the receiving of the load length information; and releasing, with the processor, the load from the load sling assembly when the processor determines that the load has touched the ground.
