Consultation on the update to CAP 483; Training on the Safe Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Air

Overview

The UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is consulting on proposed updates to CAP 483, with particular relevance for organisations involved in delivering training for the safe carriage of dangerous goods by air.

The updated document seeks to modernise and clarify the expectations for training providers, ensuring that the UK’s dangerous goods training guidance remains clear, practical, and aligned with current oversight practices.

The CAA encourages all organisations involved in the training in the safe carriage of dangerous goods by air to contribute to the consultation via this questionnaire and help to shape guidance that reflects the needs of both industry and learners while continuing to uphold the highest standards of aviation safety.
