I offloaded 125kg of li batteries (in phones for recycling) on 3 pallets from our pax aircraft baggae hold on the basis that;
1. Halon suppression demonstrated to be ineffective on li battery fires
2. MEL states hold must be empty if Halon system inoperative
3. Loading company stacked and tied irregular pallets on top of each other with old tape
4. ALL my pitch controls and Apu fuel feed run past this hold.
Too many holes.
