9.1. TRANSPORT OF DANGEROUS GOODS

9.1.1. GENERAL

Certain articles or materials are defined as dangerous goods that are articles or substances capable
of posing a significant risk to health, safety or property when transported by air. The carriage of such
articles is regulated.

It is the case for cargo but also for many everyday items and substances transported by passengers
or crew, which may leak or break during a flight due to the variations in temperature and pressure
generating toxic fumes or possibly starting a fire.

Rules concerning the safe transport of dangerous goods are defined in ICAO Annex 18 and in the
ICAO Document 9284 “Technical Instructions for the safe transport of dangerous goods by air” (here
after referred to as ICAO Technical Instructions). ICAO standards regarding the Transport of
Dangerous Goods are reflected in Indonesian DGCA CASR Part 92.

In addition IATA has established the Dangerous Goods Regulation manual in respect with the ICAO
rules and has also defined procedures and instructions for the transport of dangerous goods.

The ICAO technical Instructions and IATA Dangerous Goods Regulation specify:

 What may be / may not be carried,

 Responsibility of the shipper and the carrier,

 Under which conditions shipment must be conducted.

9.1.2. LION AIR AUTHORIZATION

LION AIR is NOT authorized to carry Dangerous Goods, with the exception of those Dangerous
Goods that may be contained in LION GROUP’s Company Material (COMAT) or LION GROUP’s
aircraft spare parts and supplies shipments, and those authorized to be carried by passenger or
crew in full compliance with the provisions of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulation (table 2.3.A),
as reproduced in paragraph §9.3.4 of this Chapter.

LION AIR is NOT authorized to and does NOT accept any other dangerous goods for carriage on
Company’s aircraft.

NOTE: Properly prepared Company Material and aircraft spare parts and supplies shipments from
other airlines within LION GROUP (BATIK, MALINDO, THAI LION, and WINGS) and from
BATAM AERO TECHNIC (LION GROUP MRO) will therefore be accepted for carriage.
Commercial shipment of dangerous goods will NOT be accepted.

NOTE: In this context, the shipper, as referred to as in the following pargraphs, is either the Company
itself or another Company within the LION GROUP.

NOTE: Singapore however strictly prohibits LION AIR to Carry Dangerous Goods (whether COMAT
or not) when operating from, to, or over its territory.

CIRCUMSTANCE

Any substance which, as presented for transport, is liable to explode, dangerously react, produce a
flame or dangerous evolution of heat or dangerous emission of toxic, corrosive or flammable gases or
vapors under conditions normally encountered in transport must not be carried on LION AIR aircraft
under any circumstance.

NOTE 1: Certain dangerous goods known to meet the description above have been included in the
Dangerous Goods List (ICAO Doc 9284, Technical Insructions, Table 3-1) with the word
"FORBIDDEN". It must be noted, however, that it would be impossible to list all dangerous
goods, which are forbidden for transport by air under any circumstance. Therefore, it is
essential that appropriate care be exercised to ensure that no goods meeting the above
description are offered for transport.

NOTE 2: This therefore applies to articles being returned to the manufacturer for safety reasons, to
Company Material (COMAT), as well as spare parts and supplies.

9.6.5. DANGEROUS GOODS INCIDENT PROCEDURES FOR CREW

9.6.5.1. PROCEDURE FOR FLIGHT CREW

 Follow the appropriate aircraft emergency procedures for fire or smoke removal

(Self explanatory).

 Verify NO SMOKING sign on

A smoking ban should be introduced when fumes or vapors are present and be continued for
the remainder of the flight.

 Consider landing as soon as possible

Because of the difficulties and possibly disastrous consequences of any dangerous incident,
consideration should be given to landing as soon as possible. The decision to land at the
nearest suitable aerodrome should be made early rather than late, when an incident may
have developed to a very critical point, severely restricting operational flexibility.

 Consider turning off non-essential electrical power

As the incident may be caused by electrical problems or as electrical systems may be


affected by any incident, and particularly as fire fighting activities, etc., may damaged electric
systems, turn off all non-essential electrical items. Retain power only to those instruments,
systems and controls necessary for the continued safety of the aircraft. Do not restore power
until it is positively state to do so.

 Determine source of smoke/fire/fumes

The source of any smoke/fire/fumes may be difficult to determine. Effective fire fighting or
containment procedures can be best accomplished when the source of the incident is
identified.

 In case of Dangerous Goods incidents in the cabin, refer to FA Checklist

Incidents in the passenger cabin should be dealt with the FA using the appropriate checklist
and procedures. It is essential that the FA and the Flight Crew co-ordinate their actions and
that each be kept fully informed of the others actions and intentions.

 Determine emergency response drill code

When the items have been identified, the corresponding entry on the PIC Dangerous Goods
notification form should be found. The applicable emergency response drill code may be
given on the notification form, or if not given, can be found by noting the proper shipping
name or the UN number on the notification form and using the alphabetical or numerical list of
Dangerous Goods. If the item causing the incident is not listed on the notification form, an
attempt should be made to determine the name or the nature of the substance by using the
alphabetical list.

 Use guidance from aircraft emergency response drill chart to help deal with incident

The drill code assigned to an item of Dangerous Goods consists of a number from 1 to 10,
plus a single letter. Referring to the chart of emergency response drills, each drill number
corresponds to a line of information concerning the risk posed by that substance and
guidance on the preferable action that should be taken. The drill letter is shown separately on
the drill chart; it indicates other possible hazards of the substance. In some cases, the
guidance given by the drill number may be further refined by the information given by the drill
letter.

 If time available, notify ATC of at least UN number of any Dangerous Goods being
carried

If an in-flight emergency occurs, the PIC should inform the appropriate air traffic services unit,
for information of aerodrome authorities, of any Dangerous Goods onboard. If the situation
permits, the information should include the proper shopping names, class and subsidiary risks
for which labels are required, the compatibility group for class 1 and the quantity and location
aboard the aircraft of the Dangerous Goods. If a lengthy message is impossible, identify the
Dangerous Goods on board by transmitting the UN numbers.

AFTER LANDING:

 Disembark passenger and crewmember before opening any cargo compartment doors

Even if it has not been necessary to complete an emergency evacuation after landing,
passenger and Crewmember should disembark before any attempt is made to open the cargo
compartment doors and before any further action is taken to deal with a Dangerous Goods
incident. The cargo compartment doors should be opened with the emergency services in
attendance.

 Inform ground personnel/emergency services of nature of item and where stowed

Upon arrival, take the necessary steps to identify to the ground staff where the item is stowed.
Pass on by the quickest available means all information about the item including, when
appropriate, a copy of the notification to PIC.

 Make appropriate entry in the Aircraft Flight and Maintenance Log (AFML)

An entry should be made in the maintenance log that a check needs to be carried out to
ensure that any leakage or spillage of Dangerous Goods has not damaged the aircraft

structure or systems and that some aircraft equipment (e.g. fire extinguisher, emergency
response kit, etc.) may need replenishing or replacing.

9.6.5.2. PROCEDURE FOR FLIGHT ATTENDANTS

INITIAL ACTION

 Notify captain

Notify the PIC immediately that there has been an incident concerning appears to be
Dangerous Goods and keep him informed of all actions taken and of their effect. It is essential
that the FA and the Flight Crew co-ordinate their actions and that each can be fully informed
of the each other’s actions and intentions.

 Identify the item

Ask the passenger concerned to identify the item and indicate its potential hazards. The
passenger may be able to give some guidance on the hazard(s) involved and how these
could be dealt with. If the passenger can identify the item, refer to the appropriate emergency
response drill.

IN CASE OF FIRE

 Use standard procedure/check use of water

Standard emergency procedures must be used to deal with any fire. In general, water should
not be used on spillage or when fumes are present since it may spread the spillage or
increase the rate of fuming. Consideration should also be given to the possible presence of
electrical components when using water extinguishers.

IN CASE OF SPILLAGE OR LEAKAGE

 Collect emergency response kit or other useful items

Collect emergency response kit, if provided, or collect for use in dealing with the spillage or
leakage:

− A supply of paper towels or newspapers or other absorbent paper or absorbent fabric


(e.g. seat cushion covers, head rest protectors);

− Oven gloves or fire resistant gloves, if available;

− At least two large polyethylene waste bin bags;

− At least three smaller polyethylene bags, such as those used for duty free or bar
sales or, if none available, airsickness bags.

 Don rubber gloves and smoke hood or smoke mask–portable oxygen

The hands should always be protected before touching suspicious packages or items. Fire
resistant gloves covered by polyethylene bags are likely to give suitable protection. Gas fight
breathing equipment should always be worn when attending to an incident involving fire,
fumes, or smoke.

 Move passengers away from area and distribute wet towels or cloths

The use of therapeutic masks with portable oxygen bottles or the passenger drop out oxygen
system to assist passenger in a smoke or fume filled passenger cabin should not be
considered since considerable quantities of fumes or smoke would be inhaled through the
valves or holes in the masks. A more effective aid to passenger in a smoke or fume filled
environment would be the use of a wet towel or cloth held over the mouth and nose. A wet
towel or cloth aids in filtering and is more effective at doing this than a dry towel or cloth.

FA should take prompt action if smoke or fumes develop and move passengers away from
the area involved and, if necessary, provide wet towels or cloths and give instructions to
breathe trough them.

 Place Dangerous Goods item in polyethylene bags

With emergency response kit

If it is certain that the item will not create a problem, the decision may be made not to move it.
In most circumstances, however, it will be better to move the item and this should be done as
suggested below. Place the item in a polyethylene bag as follows:

− Prepare two bags by rolling up the sides and placing them on the floor;

− Place the item inside the first bag with the closure of the item, or the point from which
it is leaking from its container, at the top;

− Take off the rubber gloves whilst avoiding skin contact with any contamination on
them;

− Place the rubber gloves in the second bag;

− Close the first bag whilst squeezing out the excess air;

− Twist the open end of the first bag and use a bag tie to tie it sufficiently tight to be
secure but not so tight that the pressure equalization cannot take place;

− Place the first bag (containing the item) in the second bag, which already contains the
rubber gloves and secure the open end in the same manner as that used for the first
bag.

With no emergency response kit

Pick up the item and place it in the polyethylene bag. Ensure the receptacle containing the
Dangerous Goods is kept upright or the area of leakage is at the top. Using paper towels,
newspaper, etc., mop up the spillage, after having ascertained there will be no reaction
between what is to be used to mop up and the Dangerous Goods. Place the soiled towels,
etc., in another polyethylene bag. Place the gloves and bags used to protect the hands either
in a separate small polyethylene bag or with the soiled towels. If extra bags are not available,
place the towels, gloves, etc., in the same bag item. Expel excess air from the bags and close
tightly to be secure but not so tight that pressure equalization cannot take place.

 Stow polyethylene bags

If there is a catering or bar box on board, empty any contents and place the box on the floors,
with the door upward. Place the bag(s) containing the item and any soiled towels, etc., in the
box and close the door. Take the box or, if there is no box, the bag(s) to position as far away

as possible from the flight deck and passengers. If a galley or toilet is fitted, consider taking
the box or bag(s) there, unless it is close to the flight deck. Use a rear galley or toilet
wherever possible, but do not place the box or bag(s) against the pressure bulkhead or
fuselage wall. If a galley is used, the box or bag(s) can be stowed in an empty waste
container. The toilet door should be locked from outside. In a pressurized aircraft, if a toilet is
used, any fumes will be vented away from the passengers. However, if the aircraft is
unpressurized there may not be positive pressure in a toilet to prevent fumes from entering
the passenger cabin.

Ensure when moving a box that the opening is kept upward or when moving a bag that either
receptacle containing the Dangerous Goods is kept upright or the area of leakage is kept at
the top. Wherever the box or bag(s) have been located, wedge them firmly in place to prevent
them from moving and to keep the item upright. Ensure that the position of the box or bags
will not impede disembarkation from the aircraft.

 Treat affected seat cushions/covers in the same manner as Dangerous Goods item

Seat cushions seat backs or other furnishings, which have been contaminated by a spillage,
should be removed from their fixtures and placed in a large bin bag or other polyethylene bag
together with any bags used initially to cover them. They should be stowed away in the same
manner as the Dangerous Goods item causing the incident.

 Cover spillage on carpet/floor

Cover any spillage on the carpet or furnishings with waste bags, if available. If not, use
airsickness bags opened out so that the plastic side covers the spillage or use the plastic
covered emergency information cards. Carpet which has been contaminated by a spillage
and which is still causing fumes despite being covered, should be rolled up, if possible and
placed in a large bin bag or other polyethylene bag. It should be placed in a waste bin and
stowed, when possible, either in the rear toilet or rear galley. If the carpet cannot be removed
it should remain covered by a large bin bag or polyethylene bags, etc., and additional bags
should be used to reduce the fumes.

 Regularly inspect items stowed away/contaminated furnishings

Any Dangerous Goods contaminated furnishings or equipment, which have been removed
and stowed away or covered for safety should be subject to regular inspection.

AFTER LANDING

 Identify to ground personnel Dangerous Goods item and where stowed

Upon arrival, take the necessary steps to identify to the ground staff where the item is stowed.
Pass on all about the item.

 Make appropriate entry in the cabin maintenance log and ensure an entry is made by
flight crew in the AFML.
