    • Which cargo may be turned over to the owning unit without an authorization letter?

    • A.

      Registered mail.

    • B.

      Classified cargo.

    • C.

      Unit mobility cargo.

    • D.

      Signature service cargo.

    Correct Answer
    C. Unit mobility cargo.
    Explanation
    Unit mobility cargo may be turned over to the owning unit without an authorization letter because it is specifically designated for the unit's own use and transportation. This type of cargo is typically associated with military units and is intended to support their mobility and operational readiness. Unlike registered mail, classified cargo, and signature service cargo, which require specific authorization or documentation, unit mobility cargo is exempt from these requirements as it is meant solely for the unit's internal use.

    1. You do not perform a soft reset when the HHT is

    • A.

      Active

    • B.

      Awake

    • C.

      Hidden

    • D.

      Suspended

    Correct Answer
    D. Suspended
    Explanation
    When the HHT is suspended, it is in a state of temporary inactivity or pause. Performing a soft reset is not necessary in this state because the device is already inactive and not actively running any processes. A soft reset is typically done to restart the device and clear any temporary issues or glitches, but since the HHT is already suspended, there is no need for a reset.

    You are deployed and a cargo user has offered several dirty cargo pallets for air transportation. Which one of the following is considered acceptable?

    • A.

      A thin film of road dust.

    • B.

      Chunks of mud under a vehicle.

    • C.

      No amount of dirt is acceptable.

    • D.

      Dirt and sand that you can pinch with your fingers.

    Correct Answer
    A. A thin film of road dust.
    Explanation
    An acceptable level of dirt for air transportation is a thin film of road dust. This implies that a small amount of dirt or dust is permissible on the cargo pallets as long as it is not excessive or bulky. Chunks of mud under a vehicle would likely be considered too dirty for air transportation. The option stating that no amount of dirt is acceptable is incorrect, as a thin film of road dust is considered acceptable. Similarly, the option mentioning dirt and sand that can be pinched with fingers is not mentioned as acceptable, making it an incorrect answer.

    • D.

      Throw them away and log them on the 463L asset report.

    Correct Answer
    C. Return them to the Defense Logistics Agency for repair.
    Explanation
    Unsuitable RFID tags should be returned to the Defense Logistics Agency for repair. This ensures that the tags are properly fixed and can be reused in the future. Leaving them on the nets or throwing them away would not be the appropriate course of action. Returning them to the shipper for repair is also not mentioned as an option, so it is not the correct answer.

    You are building a pallet destined for Aviano AB, Italy and only have space for one more piece of cargo on the pallet. All of the available pieces have the same destination and transportation priority. Which other two factors will you use to consider which piece to build?

    • A.

      Weight and SET.

    • B.

      Movement indicator and type pack.

    • C.

      Movement indicator and SET.

    • D.

      Aircraft fuselage station and movement indicator.

    Correct Answer
    C. Movement indicator and SET.
    Explanation
    When building a pallet with limited space for one more piece of cargo, the two factors to consider are the movement indicator and SET (Special Equipment Code). The movement indicator helps determine the urgency or priority of the cargo, while the SET indicates the specific equipment or container needed for transportation. By considering both factors, you can ensure that the piece of cargo chosen is suitable for timely delivery and can be properly transported based on its requirements.

    1. You must break down an originating pallet and individually weigh each piece of cargo if there is a difference of how many pounds between the documented and actual weight?

    • A.

      100

    • B.

      150

    • C.

      200

    • D.

      355

    Correct Answer
    B. 150
    Explanation
    If there is a difference of 150 pounds between the documented and actual weight of the cargo, it is necessary to break down the originating pallet and individually weigh each piece. This is because the difference in weight indicates a potential error or discrepancy in the cargo's weight, and breaking down the pallet and weighing each piece separately will help identify the specific item or items that are causing the difference.

    What must be considered when building a multi-pallet train?

    • A.

      Immigrations clearance.

    • B.

      Supply of pallet covers.

    • C.

      Multi-pallets in back log.

    • D.

      MHE required to handle the pallet train.

    Correct Answer
    D. MHE required to handle the pallet train.
    Explanation
    When building a multi-pallet train, it is important to consider the MHE (Material Handling Equipment) required to handle the train. This means that the equipment used to move and transport the pallets should be able to handle the weight and size of the train effectively. Without proper MHE, it would be difficult and inefficient to move the pallet train, leading to potential delays and complications in the logistics process.

    You received several shipments in for airlift; which one will you not mark with a C/B?

    • A.

      A small piece of rolling stock weighing 500 pounds.

    • B.

      A shipment of pipes that are 13 feet long.

    • C.

      A three-pallet train.

    • D.

      A single pallet.

    Correct Answer
    D. A single pallet.
    Explanation
    A single pallet is the only option that does not require marking with a C/B. The other options, such as a small piece of rolling stock, a shipment of pipes, and a three-pallet train, all have specific characteristics or requirements that would necessitate marking them with a C/B. However, a single pallet does not have any unique attributes that would require it to be marked differently, so it does not need a C/B marking.

    Rate this question:

  • 49. 

    When marking the C/B on a vehicle the C/B marking must be positioned

    • A.

      Near one axle on one side of the vehicle.

    • B.

      Above one axle on one side of the vehicle.

    • C.

      Near each axle on both sides of the vehicle.

    • D.

      Above each axle on both sides of the vehicle.

    Correct Answer
    D. Above each axle on both sides of the vehicle.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "above each axle on both sides of the vehicle." This means that when marking the C/B (center of balance) on a vehicle, the marking should be placed above each axle on both sides of the vehicle. This ensures that the weight distribution is properly balanced and helps maintain stability during movement. Placing the marking above each axle on both sides of the vehicle helps drivers and operators easily identify the center of balance and make necessary adjustments if needed.
