2 This training course covers all requirements of ICAO Technical Instructions in following Units: - 1. General Philosophy 2. Limitations 3. Classification 4. Marking and Labels 5. Dangerous Goods Emergency Response Definitions: Dangerous Good are: - Articles or substances which are capable of posing a risk to health, safety, property or environment and which are shown in list of dangerous goods in IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations or which are classified according to Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) A Dangerous Goods Accident is: - An occurrence associate with and related to transport of Dangerous Goods by air that results in fatal or serious injury to a or major property or environmental damage. A Dangerous Goods Incident is: - An occurrence or than a Dangerous Goods Accident associated with and related to transport of dangerous goods by air, not necessarily occurring on board an aircraft, which results in injury to a, property or environmental damage, fire, breakage, spillage, leakage of fluid or radiation or or evidence that integrity of packaging has not been maintained. Any occurrence relating to transport of dangerous goods which seriously jeopardises an aircraft or its occupants is also deemed to be a dangerous goods incident. This training course will cover all requirements of ICAO Technical Instructions for Cabin Crew, specifically: - 1. General Philosophy, 2. Limitations, 3. Labelling and Marking, 4. Recognition of undeclared Dangerous Goods, 5. Provisions for Passengers and Crew, and 6. Emergency Procedures Page 2 of 35

Where possible keep spare batteries in ir original retail packaging (e.g. cardboard/plastic blister packs) which ensure that terminals are protected. o If original packaging is not available, insulate battery terminals so y cannot come into contact with any metallic objects: - by packing each battery in its own protective plastic bag (e.g. sturdy freezer or sandwich bag) or, - by covering terminals with insulation tape. It is strongly recommended that both above measures are taken for batteries with protruding or sharp terminals.

Paint, Alcohol, Acetone, Petrol etc. Division 4.1 Flammable Solid Any solid material, which is readily combustible, or may cause or contribute to fire through friction. E.G. Matches, Sulphur, Celluloid. Note: some are self-reactive. Division 4.2 Spontaneously Combustable Such substances are liable to spontaneous heating or to heating up in contact with air and n liable to catch fire. E.G. White or Yellow phosphorus, Magnesium diamide. Division 4.3 Dangerous when Wet Substances which, by interaction with water, are liable to become spontaneously flammable or give off a flammable gas. E.G. Calcium Carbonate, Sodium. Division 5.1 Oxidiser A substance that yields oxygen readily to stimulate combustion of or material. E.G. Ammonium nitrate, fertiliser, Bleaches 5.2 Division 5.2 Organic Peroxide (flame may be black or white) An organic material (liquid or solid) that can be ignited readily by external flame and n burns with an accelerating rate; some substances react dangerously with ors. E.G. tert-butyl hydroperoxide Page 27 of 35

28 Division 6.1 Toxic Substance Liquids or solids which are dangerous, if inhaled swallowed, or absorbed through skin. E.G. Arsenic, Nicotine, Cyanide, Pesticides, Strychnine. Some are totally forbidden e.g. Bromoacetone. Division 6.2 Infectious Substances which are known or reasonably expected to contain pathogens and cause disease in humans or in animals. E.G. Virus, Bacteria, such as HIV, Rabies and Medical & Clinical waste. Class 7 Radioactive Material Category I - White Radioactive Material with low radiation level on package surface. Class 7 Radioactive Material Category II - Yellow Radiation level higher than Category I and a transport index not exceeding 1. Class 7 Radioactive Material Category III - Yellow Radiation level higher than Category II and/or a transport index exceeding 1 but not more than 10. Class 7 Radioactive Material Fissile Page 28 of 35

29 Class 8 Corrosive Class 9 Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods. Polymeric beads Semi-processed polymeric articles impregnated with a flammable gas liquid as a blowing agent; y my evolve small quantities of flammable gas. Carbon Dioxide, solid (Dry Ice) Carbon Dioxide, solid (Dry Ice) has a temperature of -79 C. On sublimation it produces a gas heavier than air which in an enclosed area and in large quantities can lead to suffocation. Page 29 of 35

31 Environmentally Hazardous Label Packages containing environmentally hazardous substances (UN Nos and 3082) durably marked with environmentally hazardous substance mark with exception of single packagings and combination packagings containing inner packagings with contents of 5 L or less for liquids; or contents of 5 kg or less for solids. ALL packages containing environmentally hazardous substances ar a Class 9 hazard label. Limited Quantities Label Many Dangerous Goods when in reasonably limited quantities present a reduced hazard during transport and can safely be carried in good quality packagings that have not been tested and marked as is for UN Specification packagings for larger quantities of Dangerous Goods. Packages containing limited quantities of Dangerous Goods marked with a diamond shaped mark. When presented for carriage by air, mark must additionally include a Y which indicates compliance with provisions of ICAO Technical Instructions, some of which are more stringent than those of UN Model Regulations and of or modes of transport.

Thus, a package containing Class 3 Dangerous Goods may not be stowed next to or in contact with a package containing Division 5.1 Dangerous Goods. Packages containing Dangerous Goods with multiple hazards in class or divisions which require segregation in accordance with above table need not be segregated from or packages bearing same UN number. Note 1: Class 1 Dangerous Goods or than Division 1.4S may not be carried on a passenger aircraft. Page 32 of 35

34 PROCEDURES FOR RESPONDING TO EMERGENCY SITUATIONS Dangerous Goods incidents, or breeches of Dangerous Goods Regulations must always be reported. If an in-flight emergency occurs and situation permits, Captain must inform appropriate Air Traffic Services Unit of any dangerous goods on board aircraft. This information should include proper shipping name, class/division and identified subsidiary risks, compatibility group for explosives, quantity and location on board. (This information is contained in Operations Manual Part A ). For those dangerous goods for which a dangerous goods transport document is, Captain of an aircraft carrying such goods provided with information which can be used on board to assist in planning response to an emergency arising in-flight involving dangerous goods. This information can be provided by Emergency Response Guidance for Aircraft Incidents Involving Dangerous Goods (Doc 9481), which is published by International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) or by anor document giving similar information. The red Emergency Response Guide is located in Flight Deck on all BA CityFlyer aircraft. Any dangerous goods incidents/accidents or undeclared/mis-declared dangerous goods discovered in cargo or passenger reported. The Company must inform UK CAA Dangerous Goods Office and Authorities in which this occurs within 72 hours, refore Safety Report MUST be filed as soon as practicable. In event of dangerous goods being discovered by crew on board, Cabin Crew must file a SR. The SR must include: Date of incident or accident, or finding of undeclared or mis-declared dangerous goods, flight number and flight date, if applicable Description of goods and reference number of *air waybill, pouch, tag, ticket, and any or pertinent information Name and address of shipper, passenger, and any or pertinent details *An airway bill is a cargo tracking receipt, attached to cargo consignment.
