Abstract: A freight container configured to fit in an aircraft cargo hold includes a floor element. First and second parallel side walls extend away from first and second opposite edges of the floor element base surface. A top wall, parallel to a floor element resting surface, extends between edges of the first and second side walls, which edges are remote from the first and second edges. A front wall extends between the first and second side walls from a base surface third edge to a top wall front edge. The front wall has a first front wall portion, extending from the base surface third edge at a first angle of at least 90° to the resting surface. The front wall has a second front wall portion, extending from the top wall front edge at a second angle of less than 180° and more than 90° to the top wall.

Abstract: A freight carrier configured to be received in an aircraft cargo hold, a system of one or more such freight carriers and a receiving platform, and a platform, are each provided. The freight carrier includes a floor element having a resting surface configured to lie on a floor surface of a cargo hold of an aircraft. The freight carrier is configured such that its resting surface can be moved over a floor surface in a floor plane. The floor element has a base element having a base surface. The base surface is situated on the base element such that the base surface faces away from the resting surface. The resting surface is provided with an arrangement to allow the freight carrier to be slid over the floor surface. The floor element has a cavity which extends toward the base surface between the front portion and the rear portion.
