A self-leveling load table is described which is automatically maintained level by selectively opening and closing a plurality of solenoid valves for inserting and removing air from chambers provided under the table. The table is floated in a fluid by nine air chambers beneath the top of the table. These chambers are open at the bottom and four oppositely located chambers are used for leveling the table by having the air contained therein. Air bearing pendulums are used for selectively energizing solenoid valves which either apply pressurized air to the chamber or evacuate air from the chamber by means of a vacuum source.
