14 C h a p t e r 4 There are two principal manufacturers of full-sized jet aircraft: Airbus and Boeing. Battelle contacted both manufacturers to obtain information relevant to the carriage of cargo containing dry ice and the determination of limits for the use of dry ice on board aircraft.

15 In addition to presenting graphs of the mass limits for different assumed sublimation rates, Boeing presents additional curves according to the number of air conditioning packs operating. To give one example, according to the Boeing graphs, for a 1% sublimation rate, the maximum dry ice load on a 757 passenger aircraft is 725 kg; on a 757 freighter the maximum dry ice load is 2,835 kg.
