Basics of Dangerous Goods
This course will help you recognize and identify Dangerous Goods. You will be able to quickly identify them when they are presented for transport on your aircraft so that you can take appropriate action.
- Dangerous goods are items or substances that when transported by aircraft are a risk to health, safety, property, or the environment.
- These include obvious things, such as explosives, radioactive materials, flammable liquids, dangerous or volatile chemicals, strong acids, compressed gases, poisons, and aerosols. Sometimes they do not appear so obvious.
- If you would like to become a Pilot, a Flight Attendant, a Baggage handler, check-in staff member or a loader, it is important that you have an understanding of what these Dangerous Goods are.
- This course will help you recognize and identify them if and when they are presented for transport on your aircraft so that you can take appropriate action.
