Documents that affect the aircraft load and balance calculations are kept in the trip file for the period specified according to the applicable local regulations and airline requirements. Ground-handling companies consume many papers to fulfill the custom and airline procedures to accept and release the aircraft. This consumption significantly affects the handling companies’ headcount and environmental effects via time-consuming, environmental effects and useless financial investments every day. From beginning to end, the environmental effects of a paper production process, combined with the unconscious and endless use of paper as a resource, have a devastating effect. This study investigated how much paper was used during daily routine operations in the operation department of a handling company at a busy airport in Turkey. The extent to which this paper appraises necessary and unnecessary printouts, alternative methods of paper use have been considered, and printers’ environmental and financial effects have also been addressed by the same method.
