The Instruction Bulletin G 501 defines the requirements and test criteria applying to remote gas detection integrated aboard aircraft (helicopters or airplanes) and designed to aerially monitor both buried natural gas transmission pipelines as well as above ground natural gas transmission pipelines that are suited for airborne remote gas detection, both inside and outside built‑up areas. Portable hand‑held measuring instruments or methods combined with motor vehicles shall not be dealt with in this paper, as due to their flat observation angle to the surface compared to detection from the air they are subject to modified requirement criteria.
