Lithium Batteries Correct Ans-Moschella Candance Ann
In recent years, there is a growing number of lithium battery fires on aircraft. These incidents
range from localized and limited fires to large, uncontrollable in-flight fires resulting in hull
losses and fatalities. The cargo compartments of passenger aircrafts are fitted with fire
suppression systems but in most cases they are not effective in stopping a thermal runaway.
Consequently, lithium batteries in cargo are prohibited for carriage on board of passenger
aircraft. Hundreds of millions of Lithium batteries or equipment with Lithium batteries are
carried on aircraft annually. On a typical flight, an aircraft carrying 100 passengers could have
more than 500 lithium batteries on board. This includes devices such as laptop computers,
tablet devices, mobile phones, power banks, cameras, electronic watches, e-readers. Also
carry-on items such as Portable IF and defibrillators carries Lithium batteries. Furthermore,
more and more flying crews are taking advantage of the capabilities offered by Electronic
Flight Bags (EFBs) The majority of which use Lithium batteries as a primary power source. But
Lithium batteries may also enter a cockpit in the form of a flashlight, laptop, iPad, camera,
mobile phone etc. It is clear that lithium batteries presents a significant threat to pilots,
passengers, aircraft and ground crews. Not only due to the number of batteries on board, but
also to the difficulty in gaining access during an emergency.
