An object transport and stowage system for an aircraft (10) includes a transport unit (32) for the transport of an object (20) within the aircraft (10). A first transfer drive system (62) is attached to the transport unit (32) and includes object engagement devices (92) that are engagable with the object (20). A motor (120) is mechanically coupled to and rotates one or more of the object engagement devices (92). A controller (66) is electrically coupled to the motor (120) and translates the object (20) relative to the transport unit (32). Another object transport and stowage system for an aircraft (10) includes a housing (150) for the stowage of an object (20) on the aircraft (10). A transfer drive system (64') is attached to the housing (150) and includes object engagement devices (168, 176), which are engagable with the object (20). A motor (162) is mechanically coupled to and rotates one or more of the object engagement devices (168, 176). A controller (68) is electrically coupled to the motor (162) and translates the object (20) relative to the housing (150).
