Expanded Checklist For Dangerous Goods Incidents For Flight Crew

Follow the appropriate aircraft emergency procedures for fire or smoke removal
Self-explanatory.
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 damage 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.

Page: 7.5.3

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 be accomplished when the source of the incident is
identified.
For dangerous goods incidents in the passenger cabin, see Flight Attendant
Checklist and co-ordinate Flight Crew/Flight Attendant actions
Incidents in the passenger cabin should be dealt with the Flight Attendant using the
appropriate checklist and procedures. It is essential that the Flight Attendant 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 Pilot in Commands
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. The alphabetical list can then be used to determine the emergency drill code.
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 Pilot in Command should inform the appropriate air
traffic services unit, for information of aerodrome authorities, of any dangerous goods on
board. 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 (Annex 18, 9.5).

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 Pilot in Command.
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.

Expanded Flight Attendant Checklist For Dangerous Goods Incidents In The Passenger
Cabin During Flight
INITIAL ACTION
Notify captain
Notify the Pilot in Command immediately that there has been an incident concerning
dangerous goods and keep him informed of all actions taken and of their effect. It is
essential that the Flight Attendant and the Flight Crew co-ordinate their actions and that
each can be fully informed of the each others 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.
On aircraft with only one Flight Attendant, consult with the Pilot in Command as to whether
the aid of a passenger should be sought in dealing with the incident.
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.
Authority: JKTDOMZ
Revision: 0
Date: Sep. 06, 99
Page: 7.5.6

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. Flight Attendant 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 absolutely 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 so as 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 a 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.
