00:01.450 --> 00:03.617
I'm Captain Rick Romo . I'm a nineties

00:03.617 --> 00:05.839
Alpha . I'm coming to commander for the

00:05.839 --> 00:08.006
554 Movement Control Team , also known

00:08.006 --> 00:10.061
as the M . C . T . Second Lieutenant

00:10.061 --> 00:11.506
Carisa Diaz eight Alpha .

00:11.506 --> 00:13.617
Transportation Officer . The Movement

00:13.617 --> 00:15.728
control team coordinates the movement

00:15.728 --> 00:15.370
of personnel and equipment . In the

00:15.370 --> 00:17.314
case of a large scale mobilization

00:17.314 --> 00:19.426
effort , we're trying to validate our

00:19.426 --> 00:21.426
capabilities on Fort Dix . So we're

00:21.426 --> 00:23.592
this palette here . What they're doing

00:23.592 --> 00:23.045
is building the pallets loaded onto an

00:23.045 --> 00:25.101
aircraft . So once they do here they

00:25.101 --> 00:27.267
get the weight to make sure everything

00:27.267 --> 00:29.489
is tied up . I'm gonna keep it nice and

00:29.489 --> 00:28.575
tight . So that way when it goes on the

00:28.575 --> 00:30.785
aircraft it doesn't shift . So we can

00:30.785 --> 00:32.896
also do this with vehicles as well to

00:32.896 --> 00:35.125
the load plan is important for the load

00:35.125 --> 00:37.069
master to ensure the safety of the

00:37.069 --> 00:39.236
aircraft when it's taking off and when

00:39.236 --> 00:41.403
it's landing . So low plan is how much

00:41.403 --> 00:44.265
weight is gonna be in one given spot on

00:44.265 --> 00:46.376
the aircraft at a time . In order for

00:46.376 --> 00:48.487
the plane to be balanced . You take a

00:48.487 --> 00:50.654
measurement from the very front of the

00:50.654 --> 00:53.020
vehicle to the first axle and that

00:53.020 --> 00:55.020
would be your distance one from the

00:55.020 --> 00:57.242
same start point . You come and get the

00:57.242 --> 00:59.353
center balance from the second axle .

00:59.353 --> 01:01.576
That'll be your distance to you get the

01:01.576 --> 01:03.687
axle weight and you won't buy that by

01:03.687 --> 01:05.909
the second distance and you divide that

01:05.909 --> 01:08.020
by the total weight of the vehicle in

01:08.020 --> 01:07.700
order to get the center of balance in

01:07.700 --> 01:09.700
order for the load master to better

01:09.700 --> 01:11.922
plan his loading of the vehicles on the

01:11.922 --> 01:11.830
aircraft
