The ground service device includes a rack with three struts and an attachment device that are releasably attachable to four receiver mounts of the connecting interface. The ground service device further includes clamps for releasably connecting the rotor blades with the four receiver mounts to secure the rotor blades in the non-operational mode of the rotary-wing aircraft.
