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.

Just wondered:)

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;)

My hypothetical situation - something more mainline.

As per Dangerous Goods Regulations, classified as

UN3166 Vehicle, flammable liquid powered, class 9 Dangerous Goods to be transported under Packing Instruction 900.

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