IATA and batteries
From Mike Woodhouse – more or less

We got a message from Mike Woodhouse suggesting that one goes to IATA (the International Air Transport Organization) for the latest. Mike included a copy of a PDF from IATA. We don’t include PDFs in SEN and this one included graphics so we could put it in as is. So we went to the IATA web site to find the link … We could not find the document but the one at the link below. This one had slightly different rules from the one Mike originally sent .. so here it is.

Note also that some airlines and countries may have their own “local rules”, to coin a phrase.
