HQ AMC/A4TR provides guidance for the annual revalidation of pallet and nets at local installations. They are responsible for overseeing and coordinating the revalidation process, ensuring that all pallets and nets meet the required standards and are in proper working condition. This includes providing instructions, regulations, and training to local installations on how to conduct the revalidation process effectively. HQ AMC/A4TR plays a crucial role in maintaining the safety and efficiency of pallet and net operations across the command.

The rolling stock is secured to a K-loader by using chains and devices both in the forward and aft direction. This ensures that the rolling stock remains in place and does not move during transportation. Chains provide a strong and reliable method of securing the load, while devices such as hooks and clamps further enhance the stability and safety of the load.

If a mission essential personnel (MEP) passenger notifies the Air Terminal Operations Center (ATOC) within three hours of aircraft departure, they will normally not be added to the mission if it will adversely impact already-manifested passengers. This means that if adding the MEP passenger to the mission would cause a negative impact on the passengers who have already been confirmed for the flight, the MEP passenger will not be accommodated. This ensures that the needs and comfort of the already-manifested passengers are prioritized.

The duty position that is considered the "eyes and ears" of the aerial port is the ramp controller. This position is responsible for overseeing the movement of aircraft on the ramp and ensuring the safe and efficient loading and unloading of cargo and passengers. They communicate with the pilots and ground crew to coordinate the movement of aircraft and ensure that all operations are carried out according to established procedures and safety regulations. The ramp controller plays a crucial role in maintaining the smooth flow of operations at the aerial port.

Security and classified shipments must be inventoried and accountability transferred at the closest shift change to 0001 hours local time each day. This ensures that there is a regular and consistent process in place to track and monitor these shipments, maintaining their security and ensuring accountability. By conducting the inventory and transferring accountability at the shift change closest to 0001 hours, it allows for a clear and defined timeframe for this action to take place, minimizing the chances of any discrepancies or security breaches.

The special interest cargo section of a departure mission load report (MLR) includes information about registered mail, human remains, and reicing/refrigerated shipments. However, it does not include information about hazardous cargo.

The shipper completes blocks 3, 4, 5, and 6 when the information is classified. These blocks contain important information related to the classification of the shipment, such as the level of classification, the authority for classification, and any special handling instructions. By completing these blocks, the shipper ensures that the necessary information is provided for the proper handling and processing of the classified shipment.

The correct answer is c. NEW of explosives off-loaded at your station. When completing the inbound side of the AMC Form 77, the TOTAL NEW block is used to record the net explosives weight (NEW) of the explosives that are being off-loaded at your station. This block is specifically for cargo/mail data offload, so it is important to accurately enter the NEW of the explosives that are being off-loaded at your station.

The Remarks block on the AMC Form 108 is used to provide a rationale for the rehandled action. This allows for documentation and clarification of the reasons behind the decision to rehandle passengers. It helps to ensure transparency and accountability in the process. The other options (b, c, d) do not pertain to the information that should be entered into the Remarks block.

When completing the Air Mobility Command (AMC) Form 68 for a mission that operates for more than one day, the correct action to take is to transfer the information to a new AMC Form 68. This ensures that each day of the mission has its own separate form and allows for accurate record-keeping and tracking of the movement log.

The correct answer is "classified protected cargo" because the passage states that the cargo is identified as nuclear weapons related material (NWRM), which implies that it contains sensitive and classified information. As a member of the special handling section, it is your responsibility to handle and protect this cargo with the necessary security measures to ensure its confidentiality and prevent unauthorized access.

When processing a terminating Air Mobility Command (AMC) mission capability (MICAP)/very, very important parts (VVIP)/forward supply system (FSS) shipment, the form used to control and monitor each shipment is the AMC Form 35, Terminating AMC MICAP/VVIP Control Log.

After a green sheet request is submitted, the Air Clearance Authority (ACA) at RMS notifies Load Planning.

When preparing a load plan, three copies are prepared. Two copies are given to ATOC personnel and one copy is given to ramp services personnel.

If a distinguished visitor requests no honors but requests transportation, the DV honors code to be used is "T". This code indicates that the visitor is not to receive any honors, but transportation will be provided as requested.

To figure out the percent of mean aerodynamic chord (MAC) for an aircraft when preparing a load plan, you need to know the Leading edge mean aerodynamic chord (LEMAC) and the mean aerodynamic chord (MAC). These figures are important because they represent the dimensions of the aircraft's wings, specifically the distance from the leading edge of the wing to the MAC. By knowing these measurements, you can calculate the percentage of MAC that the cargo will occupy and ensure that it is properly balanced and distributed within the aircraft.

When unescorted classified shipments under the care of the aircraft commander or designated representative arrive at the destination, it is important to notify the consignee of the arrival and obtain a receipt when turning the shipment over to them. This ensures that there is a record of the transfer of custody and provides accountability for the shipment. By notifying the consignee and obtaining a receipt, it ensures that the shipment is properly received and acknowledged by the intended recipient.

The correct answer is a. The officer in charge or superintendent of the section performing the rehandled aircraft workload. This individual is responsible for overseeing the completion of the rehandled workload and ensuring that all entries on the form are accurate and complete. They have the authority to review and sign the form to indicate their approval and acceptance of the work performed. The officer in charge or superintendent is in a position of authority and accountability for the rehandled aircraft workload, making them the appropriate person to review and sign the form.

Spotters are required anytime vehicles are operated within 10 feet of an aircraft. This is because operating vehicles near aircraft can pose a safety risk, and having spotters helps to ensure that the vehicles maintain a safe distance from the aircraft. By requiring spotters within 10 feet, it helps to minimize the chances of accidents or damage to the aircraft during operations.

The correct answer is c. The fuselage station on the aircraft where the item starts and stops. This information is included in the cargo breakdown section of the departure mission load report (MLR) to indicate the specific location within the aircraft where the rolling stock and multipallet trains will be loaded and unloaded. This helps ensure proper placement and organization of the cargo during the departure mission.

The correct answer is c. WRI 7M 00001. This is the correct manifest number because it follows the format of the question, which states that the shipment is from McGuire AFB, New Jersey (WRI) and is destined to Ramstein AB, Germany (RMS). The number starts with the origin code (WRI), followed by the flight number (7M), and ends with a unique 5-digit number (00001).

When reviewing the Air Mobility Command (AMC) Form 77, if data records personnel notice any discrepancies, they will send the package back to the Air Terminal Operations Center (ATOC) for corrections or correct it themselves.

The requested departure date is not required on the explosives clearance request. The other options, such as mission number, pieces/weight/cube, and proper shipping name (PSN) and United Nations (UN) number, are all necessary information that should be included in the request.

You will prepare 5 manifests. The general cargo will have its own manifest for each location, so there will be 2 manifests for general cargo. The registered mail for Hickam AFB will have its own separate manifest, making a total of 3 manifests so far. The signature service shipments will also have their own manifest for each destination, adding 2 more manifests. Therefore, the total number of manifests will be 5.

To restrain a piece of cargo weighing 12,500 pounds for the vertical direction, you would need to use 2 25,000-pound chains. Each chain has a capacity of 25,000 pounds, so two chains would be sufficient to safely secure the cargo.

When maintaining the consolidated flight packages (CFP), it is recommended to consider them as permanent documents and retire them to the base staging area after 2 fiscal years. This means that after 2 fiscal years, the CFP should no longer be actively used or updated and should be stored in the base staging area for archival purposes. This ensures that the CFPs are kept for a sufficient amount of time for reference and historical purposes, while also allowing for efficient document management and decluttering of active documents.

The Telecon Coordination block on the AMC Form 77 is completed when the aircraft load message is passed by telephone for short flights. This suggests that the purpose of the Telecon Coordination block is to document the communication between the loadmaster/boom operator and the relevant personnel regarding the aircraft load for short flights. This ensures that the necessary information is properly conveyed and coordinated via telephone before the flight takes place.

When maintaining transportation documentation, if a mission number changes, you should print an additional copy of the old AMC Form 77 and attach it to the new AMC Form 77. This ensures that the new form includes all the necessary information and maintains a record of the previous mission number. It also helps in maintaining a clear and organized file for future reference.

If a discrepancy is discovered that cannot be corrected, the duty section that should be notified is the load planning section. This section is responsible for planning and organizing the loading of cargo onto aircraft. They are knowledgeable about the weight and balance requirements of the aircraft, as well as any special handling instructions for different types of cargo. Therefore, if a discrepancy is found that cannot be corrected, it is important to notify the load planning section so that they can assess the situation and determine the best course of action.

The correct answer is a. a load plan is reaccomplished. When a load plan is reaccomplished, the ATOC personnel complete the AMC Form 56, Rehandled Workload. This form is used to document any changes or adjustments made to the original load plan. It helps track the rehandling of cargo and ensures that all necessary information is recorded for proper accountability and tracking. This process is important for maintaining accurate records and ensuring that the cargo is properly accounted for during its transportation.

When conducting an air terminal inventory on loose cargo, it is necessary to verify the priority, number of pieces, weight, and cube. These details are important for accurate tracking and management of the cargo. The aerial port of debarkation (APOD), transportation control number (TCN), date received, and air commodity/special handling code are also important, but they are not mentioned in the given answer. The warehouse location and configuration are not mentioned as necessary verification requirements in the given answer.

If none of the information entered in the blocks of the form is classified, the shipper completes four total copies of the form.

If there is not enough airlift to move all the green sheet cargo for a particular destination, the remaining cargo should be moved in the sequence in which it was green sheeted by each specific service. In addition, the 618 AOC (Air Operations Center) must be notified about this.

When maintaining transportation documentation for a mission that originates and terminates at the same station, the correct way to file the consolidated flight package(s) (CFP) is to consolidate them into one CFP and file it under the originating station, regardless of any minor mission number changes. This means that all the necessary documentation for the mission should be combined into one package and filed under the station where the mission originated. This ensures that all the relevant information is easily accessible and organized in one place.

The correct answer is flight officer in charge. When requesting a Global Asset Reporting Tool account for assigned personnel, the written request must be signed by the flight officer in charge. This is because the flight officer in charge is responsible for overseeing the operations and activities of the flight and is therefore authorized to make such requests on behalf of the personnel under their command.

After doubling the thickness of the shoring, it needs to be added to the outside diameter of the drum and subtracted from the inside diameter. This is because the shoring is used to provide support and stability to the drum, and by adding it to the outside diameter, it ensures that the shoring is in contact with the outer surface of the drum. Subtracting it from the inside diameter ensures that the shoring does not interfere with the inner space of the drum, allowing for proper containment and storage.

When preparing a load plan, it is necessary to consider the weight of all the cargo and the moments that the cargo generates. This is important because the weight of the cargo affects the overall balance and stability of the aircraft during flight. The moments generated by the cargo, which are the forces acting on the aircraft due to the cargo's weight and position, also need to be taken into account to ensure that the aircraft remains within its safe operating limits. Therefore, totaling the weight of all the cargo and the moments it generates is crucial in order to create a safe and efficient load plan.

The correct answer is d. and the initials of the command post and ATOC representatives passing/receiving the information only. This means that when completing the outbound side of the AMC Form 77, you should enter the loadmaster/boom operator scheduled show time and the initials of both the command post and ATOC representatives who are involved in passing or receiving the information.

The correct answer is 6. This is because there are multiple parties involved in the transportation of cargo and mail on a DOD-owned, -controlled, or -contracted aircraft. Each party requires a copy of the manual manifest, including the shipper, the aircraft operator, the consignee, and any other relevant parties. Therefore, a minimum of 6 copies of the manual manifest should be produced to ensure that all parties have the necessary documentation.

When preparing a DD Form 1385, Cargo Manifest, as a backup manifest, you should complete the manifest header and only include the pallet header and loose cargo/mail data that are in the body. This means that you do not need to include all the details of the manifest, but only the necessary information related to the pallets and loose cargo/mail. This allows for a concise and focused backup manifest that can be easily referenced if needed.

After running the local management reports and comparing them to available airlift, the last step in monitoring cargo capability is to work with your leadership and the 618 Air Operations Center (AOC) to adjust airlift if necessary. This step ensures that any changes or adjustments needed to meet cargo requirements can be made in collaboration with higher-level authorities and the AOC, which is responsible for coordinating and managing airlift operations. This helps ensure effective and efficient transportation of cargo.

To restrain a piece of cargo weighing 6,350 pounds, two 10,000-pound chains would be sufficient. Each chain can support a weight of up to 10,000 pounds, and since the cargo weighs less than that, two chains would be enough to secure it.

When a piece of cargo is noticed missing from a manifest and cannot be located, it must be brought to the attention of data records. This is because data records are responsible for maintaining and keeping track of all information related to cargo, including its location and status. By notifying data records about the missing cargo, they can investigate and update the records accordingly, ensuring that the issue is addressed and resolved.

The center of balance from the front forward edge (CBFFE) can be calculated by multiplying the weight of each axle by its distance from the FFE, adding these products together, and then dividing by the total weight of the vehicle. In this case, the calculation would be: (4200 * 40) + (4300 * 78) + (8500 * 186) + (8750 * 234) / (4200 + 4300 + 8500 + 8750) = 160 inches.

When preparing a manual manifest, the correct answer is c. three-character aerial port code (APC). This is because the destination block in a manual manifest requires the entry of a three-character aerial port code, which is a unique identifier for an aerial port. This code helps in accurately identifying the destination of the manifest and ensures that the cargo or passengers are directed to the correct location. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) code (option a) is a four-character code used to identify airports, not specifically aerial ports. The three-character air terminal identifier (ATI) code (option b) is also used to identify airports, but not necessarily aerial ports. The option d, "in-the-clear destination," does not provide any specific code or identifier for the destination.

The center of balance from the front forward edge (CBFFE) is calculated by multiplying the weight of each box by its distance from the FFE, adding all the products together, and dividing the sum by the total weight of the multipallet train. In this case, the calculation would be:

(1000 * 0) + (1385 * 50) + (1655 * 42) + (2325 * 63) + (3750 * 96) / (1000 + 1385 + 1655 + 2325 + 3750) = 71

Therefore, the center of balance from the front forward edge is 71 inches.

The center of balance from the front forward edge (CBFFE) can be calculated by multiplying the front axle weight (FAW) by its distance from the front forward edge (FFE), and adding it to the product of the rear axle weight (RAW) and its distance from the FFE. In this case, the calculation would be (3,650 pounds * 40 inches) + (4,200 pounds * 150 inches), which equals 146,000 inch-pounds. Therefore, the correct answer is 99 inches.

The center of balance from the front forward edge (CBFFE) is calculated by multiplying the weight of each box by its distance from the FFE, summing up these values, and dividing by the total weight of the multipallet train. In this case, the calculation would be: (650*42 + 415*46 + 700*64 + 1500*56 + 2800*100 + 2900*112) / (650 + 415 + 700 + 1500 + 2800 + 2900) = 87. Therefore, the correct answer is 87.

To determine the wheel load for a vehicle when determining shoring requirements, you need to divide the gross vehicle weight by the number of wheels on the vehicle. This is because the weight of the vehicle is distributed among all the wheels, so dividing the total weight by the number of wheels gives you the load that each wheel carries.
