Part 121 · Fleet, cargo & dispatch
Cargo & ULD
ULDs carry their IATA type and an inspection clock styled on AC 120-85's guidance (non-mandatory FAA practice, not a regulation; the cadence is operator-configurable), and the build-up manifest supports hazmat tags, so freight ops live in the same system as crew and fleet. It replaces a separate cargo tool and a clipboard for ULD inspections.

Who it's for
Freighter load planners and cargo coordinators at a Part 121 operation who track ULDs and build the manifest in the same system that holds crew and fleet.
What it replaces
A separate cargo tool plus a clipboard for ULD inspections, kept apart from the rest of the operation.
What cargo & uld gives you
- ULDs carry IATA type and an AC 120-85-styled inspection clock (non-mandatory guidance, operator-configurable cadence)
- Hazmat tags on the build-up manifest
- Freight ops in the same system as crew and fleet
ULDs with type and inspection clock on the unit record
Each ULD carries its IATA type and an inspection clock styled on AC 120-85's guidance (non-mandatory FAA practice, not a regulation; the cadence is operator-configurable) on the unit record, so a can or pallet that's due inspection surfaces alongside the rest of the operation's due dates. Freight stops living in its own silo and is tracked in the same system as crew and fleet.

Hazmat tags on the build-up manifest
The load is built on the build-up manifest, which supports hazmat tags, so a hazardous item is marked as the manifest is built rather than noted on a separate clipboard. The manifest sits next to the crew and fleet records the operation already works from.

How an operator uses this
ULDs carry their IATA type and an inspection clock styled on AC 120-85's guidance — non-mandatory FAA practice, not a regulation, with an operator-configurable cadence — and the build-up manifest supports hazmat tags, so a freighter's load is tracked in the same system as crew and fleet rather than in a separate cargo tool with a clipboard for ULD inspections. Because the ULD inspection clock lives on the unit record, a can or pallet that's due inspection surfaces alongside the rest of the operation's due dates. Freight ops stop being the part of the airline that lives in its own silo.

How it works
Cargo & ULD, step by step
Record each ULD with its IATA type and an inspection clock styled on AC 120-85's guidance (non-mandatory, operator-configurable cadence).
Build the load on the build-up manifest, tagging hazmat where it applies.
A ULD due inspection surfaces alongside the rest of the operation's due dates.
Run freight ops in the same system as crew and fleet — not a separate cargo tool.
Questions
Cargo & ULD — frequently asked
Does it track ULDs and their inspections?
Yes. ULDs carry their IATA type and an inspection clock styled on AC 120-85's guidance, and the build-up manifest supports hazmat tags — so freight ops live in the same system as crew and fleet. AC 120-85 itself is FAA guidance describing an acceptable inspection approach, not a regulation, so the cadence tracked here is an operator-configurable schedule, not an FAA-mandated annual requirement.
Where do hazmat items get flagged?
On the build-up manifest, which supports hazmat tags, so a hazardous load is marked as the manifest is built rather than noted on a separate clipboard.
