Les particularités du transport aérien ont conduit I.A.T.A. à concevoir, par ailleurs, la notion des «autres articles réglementés», dont le texte se borne à indiquer qu'ils comprennent ceux qui ne sont pas définis autrement mais présentent les caractéristiques reprises dans l'un des groupes A.B.C. ci-dessous. La définition de ceux-ci montre qu'ils regroupent des marchandises réparties selon l'importance, le degré et non pas la nature du danger. De ce fait, en principe, les «autres articles réglementés» pourraient comprendre des matières de toutes classes de danger. Pratiquement ils se rapportent tout spécialement aux matières de caractères toxiques, certains corrosifs, et aux gaz non comprimés ininflammables et non toxiques. 3, record 14, French, - Autres%20Articles%20R%C3%A9glement%C3%A9s
