Tower Talk Thursday! 🎙️
See that big metal container being loaded into our aircraft? That’s a ULD, short for Unit Load Device.
Instead of loading thousands of packages one by one, they’re packed into ULDs (containers or pallets) ahead of time. Then the whole unit rolls straight into the aircraft and locks securely into place. ⚙️
Why it matters:
📦 Faster loading and unloading, which is key when every minute of the overnight window counts
🔒 Cargo stays secure and protected in flight
✈️ Containers are shaped to fit the aircraft, making the most of every inch of space
💬 Ever wondered how many packages fit in one of these? Take a guess below! 👇
