Utter Rubbish!
Croqueteer; You may actually believe your own post, but the problems which the 146 has with air quality are real. The company I work for has managed to get on top of the problem with new engine seals and other measures. The CAA in Australia takes the problem seriously as did Qantas. I didn't have a problem with fumes at first, but have become more sensitive to the issue with time and exposure. I can easily tell now if a problem exists, but fortunately the occurences are now much less frequent. There was an Ansett hostess who used the 146 fumes issue to line her pockets, but that doesn't cancel the issue of fumes in the 146. Some crew have been much more troubled by fumes than others, which probably reflect their personal immune response to toxins of various types.
