Thread: Camping gas limit per party when flying by heli

Reference from one heli operator when carrying passengers. When carried as cargo only, the quantity is upped.

CAA seem to have the info spread out from one reference to another so must have been fun collating all this in one place to make sense of it all?

Note there is no differentiate made between white spirits and petrol - which seems to make sense after earlier discussion on the matter? Same thing for the purpose of carrying?
The answers below suit me.
