Apparatus for use in an aircraft, such as a helicopter, for controlling rotation of a load suspended from a cable and for permitting the cable to swing relative to the helicopter. A frame includes a first or upper assembly which is mounted on the helicopter for pivotal movement about a first pivot axis. The frame also includes a second or lower assembly connected to the upper assembly which is pivotal about a second pivot axis extending transversely to the first pivot axis. A spreader bar is suspended within the frame and is isolated during helicopter pitch and roll. Helicopter yaw imparts positioning of the spreader bar relative to a vertical axis so that the load may be selectively oriented.
