Does anyone have information on environmental system contamination in Airbus aircraft after an engine compressor wash using Lufthansa cyclean techniques? The fumes are the dirty sox / oil type fumes in many cases and are giving crew headaches, disorientation, flushes, facial tingling and cognitive confusion.

Without doubt, the air around airports isn't going to be great. However, in the case of Airbus, they claim their ECS producers air quality on the tarmac due filtering at very high levels ( see Fastrack magazine references ). Oil and other contaminants pumped straight off the engine into the mixing unit is longer lasting in my experience.
