What changed in this edition

This rewrite of AFMAN 24-604 is in response to international and domestic hazardous materials regulation changes, user feedback, and publication recommendations. It incorporates Administrative Change, 11 May 2021. It includes updates to the international dangerous goods and domestic Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR)

Publications state their own changes on page 1 — behind a PDF the official host will not serve to a search engine. This is that section, verbatim. It describes the edition above, not every historical change.

Citations that no longer resolve

• 49 CFR 100 cited 3 times in this publication

These Code of Federal Regulations references appear in AFMAN 24-604 but are not in the current CFR — checked against the eCFR structure API. A part can vanish because it was removed or reorganised, and some references are simply mistyped in the source publication. Either way the pointer is dead: verify before relying on it, and check every publication affected.

If AFMAN 24-604 changes, who else is affected

6 publications in 4 other communities depend on this one, which Transportation owns. Each community inspects its own publications; a dependency that crosses communities is owned by nobody, which is why this list normally does not exist anywhere. Built from the publications' own citations, so it reflects what we have read.
