Hazard Labels
Handling Labels
Certain dangerous goods are restricted on passenger airplanes, while others require protection from sunlight or heat. Careful handling is essential for all dangerous goods. Proper package orientation and compliance with requirements can be easily identified using handling labels.
Segregations
To prevent hazardous reactions, packages with dangerous goods should not be stored together or in positions where interaction can occur during leakage. Compliance is ensured through specific segregation requirements outlined in regulations. Moreover, certain dangerous goods can endanger special cargo like live animals, undeveloped film, and food. The app offers helpful references for effectively segregating dangerous goods from each other and from special cargo, promoting safety and compliance.

Emergency procedures for the safe transport of dangerous goods by air involve taking immediate action in the event of incidents or accidents. These procedures consist of notifying the flight crew about the presence of dangerous goods onboard, implementing measures to contain leaks or spills, activating emergency response protocols, and adhering to established guidelines to minimize risks and ensure the safety of passengers, crew, and the aircraft. Regular training, communication, and coordination among relevant personnel are crucial for an effective emergency response and the reduction of potential hazards associated with the transportation of dangerous goods by air.
