Thread: No lpg bottles on choppers

This is nothing new, always have been strict regulations around carriage of dangerous goods on aircraft. Would appear it is now being enforced.

CAA doesn’t determine the dangerous goods regulations, IATA does. Individual aircraft operators will state in their company exposition how they are going to comply with these regulations (a lot of smaller operators say they won’t carry dangerous goods), and the CAA ensure they comply with their exposition.

Even the small gas canisters will be classified as dangerous goods, unless there is an exemption, and there won’t be for a compressed flammable gas. They certainly are banned from a commercial airliner, and I would be very surprised if they were permitted on anything smaller.
