Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Aircraft Cargo Handling Supervisors

Managing air transportation activities, loading aircraft cargo and baggage, and operating loading equipment directly support civilian cargo-handling supervision.

How to prepare: Build a sample civilian aircraft cargo loading plan, practicing space allocation and center-of-gravity calculations.

What the civilian work involves
  • Direct ground crews in the loading, unloading, securing, or staging of aircraft cargo or baggage.
  • Distribute cargo to maximize use of space.
  • Determine the quantity and orientation of cargo, and compute an aircraft's center of gravity.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Cargo tracking system software
  • Microsoft Excel
