“We will be adding these to our list of solutions and promoting them widely to the industry.”

ULD Care vice president, Bob Rogers said: “The Strap App offers users guidance on how to properly secure non-ULD cargo within an aircraft, such as vehicles and equipment

“The Wind Speed calculator allows users to determine whether or not a ULD is at risk of being blown off the ramp during loading and unloading.”
