Cargo Aircraft Only Label

Apply a "Cargo Aircraft Only" label on packagings that are not permitted on passenger aircraft, as identified in column 7 of Table A4.1. You must also use marking boards, according to A15.1.6, when applicable, if the label is not visible. See A15.3.1 for more details.

You do not need to use the "Cargo Aircraft Only" label on cargo shipped according to A17.3, unless diverted as identified in A17.3.5.

For packagings containing magnetized materials, apply a "Magnetized Material" label; a Class 9 label is not required. You must also use marking boards, according to A15.1.6, when applicable, if the label is not visible.

When packagings meet the requirements of A3.1.16, apply an "Empty" label. Any container or cylinder shipped as empty must have all previously applied hazard labels removed, obliterated, destroyed, or completely covered by the "Empty" label. New or reconditioned cylinders do not require an "Empty" label, but must be marked or tagged to indicate they are empty.
