Do you think your post was written in a spirit of respect? I suggest to you that it is not.
.
Why not leave out inflammatory language such as b*llocks and concentrate on the problem, which is incredibly serious and needs solving? Your emotional outburst makes me suspect that perhaps like a previous poster you are possibly suffering from contamination yourself. Yes really, this comment is absolutely not offered in an attempt to annoy you. Its not at all unlikely that you could be suffering from exposure to contaminated air (even if you are unaware of it) if you have 20 years on type.
.
(Anyone who's on a high risk type such as the 146 and has been told by their partner/family that they are or have become irritable/emotional/ratty etc might like to ask themselves if years of exposure to contaminated air might just be a reason for their condition)
.
From memory about 300 pilots were contacted. That's a fair sample. I cannot comment on why you and your colleagues were left out. I'm pretty sure of the number but I concede that my memory may not be entirely accurate, so please, GCAQE, I believe you will know who did this survey and some of the details. Please comment on this.
.
Finally, thank you for posting the idea to run packs cold for 2 mins as a way of minimising fume exposure. Does anyone else do this and if so do you also find it works?
