The study provides a review of the available knowledge on radiation exposure of civil air carrier crewmembers. The mean additional radiation exposure of Dutch aircrew operating on intercontinental routes is estimated to be 3-6 mSv per annum (range 0.1-8.9 mSv/year). After 20 years of active intercontinental flying, Dutch aircrew have an estimated risk of 2-5 in 1000 to die of occupational radiation-related cancer, in addition to the normal expectation for the Dutch population that 250-300 in 1000 would die of cancer from causes unrelated to occupational radiation exposure. With regards to the regulatory aspects of radiation protection, it is recommended to consider air carrier crewmembers as a special category. Possible measures for such a category are discussed. It is recommended to appoint a commission, which will be in charge of development and evaluation of directives for civil aircrew.
