weldment frame that has four padded braces. The handles have knurled gripping surfaces. A missile is secured in the cradle by a web strap attached to the tie-down assembly and the bar buckle. Two  Aero  64A1  hoisting  bars  must  be  used  to manually lift a Sparrow missile from a missile skid to an aircraft wing or fuselage-mounted launcher. AERO 68A HOISTING BAR The  Aero  68A  hoisting  bar  (fig.  9-13)  is  a  bar within   a   bar   that   has   a   hook   assembly   attached. Extending  the  internal  bars  15  7/8  inches  each  can increase the length of the bar. To  manually  lift  the  weapon,  you  must  hook  the Aero 68A hoisting bar into the weapon lugs. This bar is used to handle or transport any weapon having standard lugs.  Weapons  weighing  up  to  1,000  pounds  can  be lifted if two bars are used. HLU-256/E MANUAL HOISTING BAR The  HLU-256/E  manual  hoisting  bar  (fig.  9-14) consists  of  a  round  steel  bar  with  a  removable  bomb nose plug connector and tail stop plates on one end. A quick-release pin secures the nose plug connector to the bar. When a tee configuration is desired, the nose plug can be relocated to a position at the bar's midpoint. The opposite end of the bar can be used as a lift point in the bomb's tail end. A tail stop is situated 18 inches from this end of the bar. The  HLU-256/E  manual  hoisting  bar  is  used  to manually lift Mk 80 series general-purpose bombs that weigh up to 1,000 pounds during aircraft loading/unloading   operations.   It   is   also   used   for weapons assembly purposes.
