Experience as a bunker manager
After broadening his experience, Mr Karadag took on a new challenge: becoming a loadmaster.
With his success, he subsequently took on the job of load controller. His job was to monitor cargo palletisation in compliance with IATA standards (air transport of animals) and the segregation required for the air transport of dangerous goods, which varies from one company to another. In this role, he was entrusted with every confidence, eventually being put in charge of the "headset" for these aircraft and shipments.
He was able to supervise the loading of the aircraft, following the transport safety rules specific to the aircraft and the crew. His job was to produce the weight and balance, as well as complete all the other documentation required for transport.
