Aviation - Dangerous Placards

When determining which placards must be used and what options are available, both placarding tables must be considered. You may placard a hazardous material shipment, even when an exception makes it unnecessary, if the placarding otherwise conforms to the requirements of the HMR for the hazards presented.

You may use the "DANGEROUS" placard on a unit load device if the shipment contains non-bulk packages with two or more categories of hazardous materials that require different placards as specified in Table 2. However, when 1,000 kg (2,205 pounds) aggregate gross weight or more of one category of material is loaded at one loading facility, the placard specified in Table 2 must be applied.

Do not use the "DANGEROUS" placard to placard shipments of Table 1 materials. The DANGEROUS placard may only be used for domestic shipments.
