Definitions and Terms

• ACL – Allowable Cabin/Cargo Load

- Amount of passengers/cargo that may be transported by a specific aircraft.

• TALCE – Tanker Airlift Control Element

- Supports airlift missions where command control, mission reporting, and/or support functions are limited or do not exist.

Definitions and Terms

•Marshalling

- Process by which units move equipment cargo, and personnel to temporary staging area near embarkation points.

•AACG – Arrival Airfield Control Group

-Responsible for receiving all airlifted items, and movement from airfield to deployment site.

•DACG – Departure Airfield Control Group

- Responsible for controlling the flow of personnel, cargo, and equipment from the marshalling area to the aircraft.

PQS Question 112.2, Describe the following as it pertains to how equipment and cargo are to be prepared for air and sea movement.

a. Palletization [ref. b, ch.3, p.3-1]

b. Weighing and Marking [ref. b, ch. 4, p. 4-1] c. Shoring [ref. b, ch. 6, p. 61]

d. Joint Inspections [ref. b, ch. 7, p. 7-1]

PALLETIZATION

- _{Exterior dimension 108” x 88”}

- Usable dimension 104” x 84”

- Maximum Cargo Height 96”

- Aluminum shell with a balsa wood interior

- Able to be locked into the aircraft rail system

- 10,000 lbs maximum capacity

- 22 rings, 6 on the long side and 5 on the short

PALLET NETS

Reference: [b]AMCAW 36-101, Vol. I, AMC Affiliation Program Equipment Preparation Course [ch. 3, p. 3-1]

PALLET NETS

•There are 3 nets to a set, total weight of set is 65 lbs.

•2 side nets are green (normally) in color and one top net is yellow (normally).

•_{Adequate restraint for cargo 10,000 lbs and 96 inches in height.} •Top net only- 2,500 lbs and 45” tall.

- Use supplemental left, right, forward and aft restraints (tiedown) if exceeds above specs.

Reference: [b]AMCAW 36-101, Vol. I, AMC Affiliation Program Equipment Preparation Course [ch.3, p. 3-1]

WEIGHING AND MARKING

The transported unit is responsible for weighing and marking the center of balance (CB) of cargo offered for air shipment. The cargo weight and CB must be determined to accurately

compute the weight and balance of a loaded aircraft.

Reference: [b] AMCAW 36-101, Vol. I, AMC Affiliation Program Equipment Preparation Course [ch.4, p. 4-1]

WEIGHING AND MARKING

DEFINITIONS

• RDL = Reference datum line. The point from which all measurements are taken. The Air Force uses the front bumper of the vehicle for the RDL

(also known as FFE).

• GWT = Gross weight (pounds)

• _{FAW = Front axle weight (pounds)}

• IAW = Intermediate axle weight (pounds)

• RAW = Rear axle weight (pounds)

• MOMENT = The number obtained by multiplying the weight by the distance (in inches) from the RDL.

RDL

CB FORMULA

Formulas for finding CB:

WEIGHT X DISTANCE = MOMENT

WEIGHT 1 + WEIGHT 2 = TOTAL WEIGHT (GVW) MOMENT 1 + MOMENT 2 = TOTAL MOMENT

CB FORMULA

PROBLEM: HMMWV

Front Axle Weight (W1) = 4,500 LBS Rear Axle Weight (W2) = 6,500 LBS Distance 1 = 20”

CB FORMULA

SOLUTION: HMMWV

WEIGHT X DISTANCE = MOMENT 1. 4,500 lbs x 20” = 90,000

2. 6,500 lbs x 150” = 975,000 TOTAL=11,000lbs = 1,065,000 CB=1,065,000/11,000

4 TYPES OF SHORING

SLEEPER

Use sleeper shoring under the frame or axles of vehicles

that weigh 20,000 pounds and are equipped with soft,

low pressure, balloon-type, off road tires.

Reference: [b] AMCAW 36-101, Vol. I, AMC Affiliation Program Equipment Preparation Course [ch.6, p. 6-1]

SHORING

ROLLING

Use rolling shoring to protect the aircraft parking ramp,

and the cargo floor and loading ramps of cargo

airplanes from damage when transporting a vehicle

across it.

SHORING

PARKING

Use parking shoring to protect the aircraft floor from

damage during flight. Any vehicle requiring rolling

SHORING

APPROACH

Approach shoring has a specific application. Use

approach shoring to decrease the approach angle of

JOINT INSPECTIONS (JI)

• All equipment must be properly prepared and documented before it can be loaded on any aircraft.
