LOADING
A. LOADING GENERALITIES
LOADING GENERALITIES INTRODUCTION
During aircraft preparation before a flight the aircraft loading process is one of the key steps, which must follow some strict rules to ensure passenger, loads and aircraft safety and security. The following chapter details the loading constraints and the necessary organization to fulfil them. The first step before ensuring the aircraft loading is correct is to determine with the necessary accuracy the empty aircraft weight and corresponding CG position, then the determination of the average passenger weight is also important for the loaded aircraft weight determination. Air transport is not more risky than other ways of transport. Indeed, air journey, with no vibration, shunting or bumping shocks, is probably the smoothest method of carrying cargo. Air transport has another advantage that can be very useful for cargo such as perishable goods or live animals: its rapidity. To ensure an adequate loading and a safe air transport, it is necessary to prepare the shipment. The shipment must be checked and pre-packed before loading. Aircraft have a flexible structure. In addition to their natural contortion in flight, the quantity and distribution of load transported have an influence on the fuselage deformation. Therefore, Airbus has defined structural loading limitations that the operator must respect. These limitations are certified by airworthiness authorities. Detailed definitions of these limitations are proposed in this chapter.
