    Correct Answer
    A. Planning, assembling, consolidating, and documenting a shipment and arranging for its movement
    Explanation
    A shipper is responsible for planning, assembling, consolidating, and documenting a shipment and arranging for its movement. This involves organizing the items to be shipped, preparing the necessary documentation such as invoices and bills of lading, and coordinating with carriers and logistics providers to ensure the smooth transportation of the shipment. The shipper is also responsible for ensuring that all necessary paperwork and permits are in order and that the shipment complies with relevant regulations and requirements.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    The ATCMD is not used to

    • A.

      Provide a way to process a shipment through the ACA.

    • B.

      Allow cargo processors to calculate critical leg ACL information.

    • C.

      Allow the APOE to easily and efficiently manifest the shipment.

      Provide notification to the APOE that a shipment is inbound and requires further transfer.

    Correct Answer
    B. Allow cargo processors to calculate critical leg ACL information.
    Explanation
    The ATCMD is not used to allow cargo processors to calculate critical leg ACL information. The ATCMD, or Automated Transportation Control and Movement Document, is a system used to process shipments through the ACA (Automated Cargo Assembly). It provides a way to process shipments, notify the APOE (Air Port of Embarkation) about inbound shipments, and efficiently manifest shipments. However, calculating critical leg ACL (Aircraft Configuration List) information is not one of its functions.

    • D.

      Air commodity and special handling code and GMT.

    Correct Answer
    B. Destination, transportation priority, and SET.
    Explanation
    The criteria used to determine which cargo to process first includes the destination, transportation priority, and SET. These factors are important in ensuring that the cargo is delivered to the correct location in a timely manner, based on the priority level assigned to it. The destination helps identify where the cargo needs to be delivered, while the transportation priority determines the urgency of the shipment. SET (Special Equipment Type) refers to any special requirements or equipment needed for handling the cargo, which may affect its processing order.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    When the SET is equal for two or more shipments, you determine which shipments are processed first by using the

    • A.

      Air commodity and special handling code.

    • B.

      Expedited handling indicators and the RDD.

    • C.

      TAC, project code, and type pack code.

    • D.

      Split/partial shipment code, air dimension code, and DI code.

    Correct Answer
    B. Expedited handling indicators and the RDD.
    Explanation
    The expedited handling indicators and the RDD (Requested Delivery Date) are used to determine the processing order of shipments when the SET (Shipment Execution Task) is equal for two or more shipments. This means that if multiple shipments have the same SET, the ones with expedited handling indicators and the earliest RDD will be processed first. These indicators and the RDD provide information about the urgency and priority of the shipments, allowing for efficient and timely processing.

    1. When aircraft arrive without cargo manifests and ATOC personnel attempt to acquire them, you must

    • A.

      Break all the pallets down and process them immediately.

    • B.

      Wait until you receive the manifests to start processing all the cargo.

    • C.

      Prepare a substitute manifest and start processing anything that requires immediate action.

    • D.

      Store the cargo out of the way until you receive the manifests and process other shipments instead.

    Correct Answer
    C. Prepare a substitute manifest and start processing anything that requires immediate action.
    Explanation
    When aircraft arrive without cargo manifests, it is important to prepare a substitute manifest. This allows for immediate processing of any cargo that requires immediate action. Waiting for the manifests to start processing all the cargo or storing the cargo out of the way would cause delays and inefficiencies. Breaking down all the pallets and processing them immediately may not be necessary if the substitute manifest can identify the cargo that requires immediate attention.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    If after six hours, ATOC personnel are unable to acquire the manifests for an aircraft, you must

    • A.

      Break each pallet down and take the appropriate information from the shipping labels.

    • B.

      Store the pallets out of the way until the originating station can reproduce the manifests.

    • C.

      Process all TP– 1 and 2 cargo, but leave TP–3 and –4 cargo until you receive the manifests.

    • D.

      Process all TP–1 cargo with “999” expedited handling indicators, but leave all other cargo until you receive the manifests.

    Correct Answer
    A. Break each pallet down and take the appropriate information from the shipping labels.
    Explanation
    If after six hours, ATOC personnel are unable to acquire the manifests for an aircraft, they must break each pallet down and take the appropriate information from the shipping labels. This is because the manifests contain important information about the cargo, such as its destination, weight, and handling instructions. By breaking down the pallets and extracting the information from the shipping labels, ATOC personnel can ensure that the cargo is properly processed and handled, even without the manifests.

    • C.

      Is listed on the manifest, but did not arrive at the air terminal.

    • D.

      Arrived at the air terminal but removed due to suspicion of pilferage.

    Correct Answer
    B. Arrived at the air terminal, but is not listed on the manifest.
    Explanation
    This answer is correct because it accurately defines an over shipment as a shipment that arrived at the air terminal but is not listed on the manifest. This means that the shipment was not accounted for or documented properly, which can cause confusion and potential issues in the shipping process.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    Which type of shipment must you annotate on the manifest and write “O/S” on the right and margin next to the information you added?

    • A.

      Short shipment.

    • B.

      Over shipment.

    • C.

      Pilfered shipment.

    • D.

      Confiscated shipment.

    Correct Answer
    B. Over shipment.
    Explanation
    When a shipment exceeds the expected quantity or weight, it is considered an over shipment. To indicate this on the manifest, the term "O/S" (which stands for "over shipment") must be written on the right and margin next to the additional information. This helps to keep track of the discrepancy and inform the relevant parties about the excess items in the shipment.

    • 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 the small piece of rolling stock, the shipment of pipes, and the three-pallet train, are all larger or more complex shipments that would require marking with a C/B for identification and tracking purposes. However, a single pallet is a relatively simple and standard shipment that does not require any additional marking.

    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 is because when marking the C/B (center of balance) on a vehicle, it is important to accurately indicate the center of balance for proper weight distribution. By placing the marking above each axle on both sides of the vehicle, it ensures that the weight is evenly distributed and balanced, which is crucial for the vehicle's stability and safety.
