An aircraft pallet assembly structured to support and retain cargo intended to be loaded on and transported by commercial aircraft, wherein the pallet assembly comprises a base and a surrounding peripheral portion normally including a multi-sided configuration. Each side of the base includes a peripheral flange extending at least along a majority of the length thereof, which is disposed and configured for fixed attachment to one of a plurality of track segments, collectively defining a track assembly, and structured to removably secure a load retaining assembly, typically in the form of a retaining cover or net in overlying, covering relation to the cargo, for purposes of maintaining the cargo in an intended position on the base of the pallet assembly. A plurality of corner assemblies are interconnected to the base through attachment to adjacently positioned ones of the track segments, wherein attachment of the track segments to correspondingly positioned peripheral flanges is accomplish by at least partial insertion of the peripheral flange into the respective track segment, thereby eliminating the utilization of a plurality of conventional fastener elements, such as rivets, screws, bolts, etc. to accomplish the attachment of the track assembly to the peripheral portion of the base.
