An air cargo container has a rolling platform for cargo personnel to stand on. The platform may be moved horizontally as the container is loaded. A latch on the platform may be used to secure the platform into a desired position. The platform may be for example 8-20 inches higher than the floor of the container, to allow cargo personnel to conveniently step up onto to the platform, and reach the upper areas of the container. With the platform adjacent to the front or back of the container, the platform may optionally be rotated from horizontal into a vertical storage position, and then secured to a front or rear post of the container.
