The air cargo world is a really different arena. You really bet your butt on the loadmaster and dispatcher. So many instances of the paperwork not matching the cargo. Weight, HazMat, 'consumer electronics', 'hard rice', just to name a few.
I flew 25+ gym bags to the Haj once, by way of Zurich. The pax got out in Zurich for a 1 night layover. Came back with only shaving kits, and jewelry bags. Read much later that one of my pax had absconded from his country with several bil.
Have lots of those stories. You develop a sixth sense about what's in the bags or in the hold.
