8. Acceptance of wheelchair/mobility aids • Battery powered can be accepted as checked baggage • 2 categories: “spillable” and “non-spillable” Exceptions Cont’Wheelchair/Mobility Aid

9. Non-Spillable: • Visually inspect for no defects • Disconnect battery unless the devise has means to prevent unintentional activation • Battery is securely attached to the chair if fully enclosed in a proper housing unit • If not enclosed… removed and placed in a strong, rigid package properly labeled “NON- SPILLABLE BATT” • If it cannot be stored upright- it is advised to remove the battery Exceptions Cont’ Wheelchair/Mobility Aid

10. Spillable: • Visually inspect for any obvious defects • Must be disconnected and end cables insulated • Must be securely attached to the wheelchair • Devise must be loaded, stowed, and secured in an upright position. If unable- remove battery • PIC must be advised orally or in writing the location of the spillable battery location aboard the aircraft prior to departure Exceptions Cont’Wheelchair/Mobility Aid

11. Battery Removal: Must be contained in appropriate packaging Labeled “CORROSIVE” Reference GOM 12-6 Exceptions Cont’Wheelchair/Mobility Aid

12. Lithium Batteries: Permitted for personal use (checked or carry-on) Approved for: watches, calculators, cameras, cell phones, lap-top computers, camcorders, hearing aids etc. Limitations: each installed or spare must not exceed • Non-lithium, voltage <9V • Lithium metal, lithium content no more than 2grams per battery • lithium-ion, an aggregate equivalent lithium content of no more than 8 grams per battery, except up to 2 batteries with an aggregate equivalent lithium content of >8grams and <25grams Exceptions Con’t

13. Quantity LimitationsEach person may not carry more than 70oz by mass or 2 L by volume. Each container cannot exceed 18 oz. by mass or 17 floz by volume *This applied to ONLY 1) and 2) listed on the previous slide. HM carried by Passengers and/or Crew

14. Per the Tradewind Aviation, LLC GOM:“No employee, agent, or contract employee shall load any cargo or baggage containing indicators of HM aboard an aircraft, onto an aircraft pallet, or into a Unit Load Device (ULD) unless it can be verified that the contents are not HM.” 12-5 Unmarked Articles

15. Non Acceptance Passengers may be unaware of the requirements for offering and transporting HM. When accepting cargo or baggage, it may necessary to question persons offering these items to determine the exact contents and thereby prevent the inadvertent acceptance and transport of HM. The “trigger list” of indicators should be reviewed. Found in the GOM Chapter 12 Appendix A or the following slides…

18. Non Acceptance Cont’ “Magnetized materials, as defined in 49 CFR, with a gauss reading of more than 0.00525 is forbidden for air transportation and a package with a reading of <0.00525 is not regulated. The ICAO and IATA Regulations regulate magnetized material with a reading between 0.002 gauss and 0.00525 gauss, thus requiring a magnetized material label.” GOM Chapter 12 Appendix A

20. Aerosol- non-refillable receptacle containing a gas compressed, liquified or dissolved under pressure, the sole purpose of which is to expel a nonpoisnou liquid, paste, or pwder and fitted with a self-closing release device allowing the contents to be ejected by the gas. Ashpyxiant gas- a gas which dilutes or replaces oxygen normally in the atmosphere. Cargo aircraft only- an a/c that is used to transport cargo and is not engaged in carrying passengers. Hazard zone- one of four levels of hazard (A-D) assigned to gases. Reference 17.116(a) Hazardous Material- substance or material that the Secretary of Transporatation has determined is capbable of posing an unreasobale risk to health, safety, and property when transported in commerce.

Lithium contect- the mass of lithium in the anode of a lithium metal or lithium alloy cell. The lithium content of a battery equals the sum of the grams of lithium content contained in the component cells of the battery.
