The reality is, despite the recent conference in London, will anything worthwhile be done to totally eliminate the ongoing problems in various aircraft types? As a former 146 pilot I have experienced firsthand the fume problems, but so far seem to suffer no medical problems myself. Keep in mind that everyone has a different tolerance level to the toxic chemical compounds.
How many more will have their health and careers ruined in the future?
Let us hope the plight and suffering of the Susans, Alysias and countless others will not be once again swept under the carpet by aircraft manufacturers, airlines and the petro-chemical companies who make the offending products.
My thoughts are with the victims, good luck in the future to you all.
