Aircraft frames having multiple bracket mounting holes, corresponding
brackets, and associated methods are disclosed. An aircraft frame member
in accordance with one embodiment of the invention includes multiple sets
of mounting holes, each set having one or more mounting holes. Brackets
in accordance with an embodiment of the invention can be attached to
either of at least two of the sets of mounting holes, for example, using
snap fit attachment devices or other attachment devices. Each bracket can
support one or more components (e.g., insulation, wiring, ECS ducting)
relative to the aircraft frame member. The bracket can also span between
two or more aircraft frame members. Each bracket can be installed in any
of a variety of positions without the use of tools and can support any of
a variety of devices. Accordingly, the time and cost associated with
manufacturing, inventorying, installing and repositioning the brackets
and the devices they support can be reduced.
