While in flight it keeps the nose of the aircraft being sling loaded facing into the wind
Some loads suddenly (and violently) start to fly while you are flying them. A huey will and so will the older 105mm cannons the Armee used to have

Oh yea! I've done it. Last one was an old OV-1D Mohawk I slung loaded over 100 miles

Yes they do at times! Their behavior in flight dictates maximum forward airspeed. Generally you are flying 100 knots or less
