Icarus,

Thanks. I understand that it is QTY per package and that the operator has the right to be more restrictive that IATA DGR.

You are right in the fact that we do have netting and the DG is accessible if necessary depending on the stowage and the rest of the cargo.

There are times where we are shipping it alone in great amounts. All I wanted to know what was the relationship between the CO2 (solid) and the ventilation rates of different aircraft. Therefore, depending on the ventilation rates and stowage area does it matter how much CO2 is allowed be shipped up to a MAX 200/500KG per pkg?

I understand that all of the variables are a factor and they are relative to each other therfore the answer could be different depending on what aircraft it is and where it is being stowed.

Thanks
