In Australia alone we have had 37 reports of what you describe reported to us from 737-800 crews.

We recommend such defects are always written up and oxygen used when the air is contaminated or you suspect it is contaminated as per common sense & checklist requirements.

We are well aware of the reluctance of crews to write up fume events but call on all pilots, engineers and cabin flight attendants to get fume events written up.

Only by reporting all defects can we progress these serious health and safety issues.

PLEASE REPORT ALL FUME EVENTS IN THE AIRCRAFT TECHNICAL LOG REGARDLESS OF DURATION.
