Public Transport Aircraft carrying Motor Vehicle
Just wondered - possibly a hypothetical situation but what is the legal requirement of a turboprop carrying say a motorbike - with people on board.

The people would have to get off the motorbike first Sorry ...
Otherwise I seem to recall that vehicles are treated as dangerous goods. Fuel and oil must be removed, and the battery disconnected or removed.
However, I can't think of many 'combi' turboprops that could take a bike and passengers. Are we talking about bush flying or something more mailine

PI 900 says max quarter tank of fuel. (paragraph a), batteries do not have to be disconnected (para d & e)
