Systems to reduce the loads on highly flexible aircraft cargo, such as wind turbine blades, are disclosed. Such systems can be active and/or passive. Active systems can be in the form of open or closed loop active control systems comprising one or more sensors on the airframe and/or payload, actuators acting on the payload, and/or an electronic controller. Passive systems can include spring-and-damper suspensions, optionally combined with devices such as vibration absorbers, and can be controlled, for example, by the placement of payload fixtures and the degrees of constraint they impose on the payload.
