A very Modern Scandal:
Is this the biggest scandal in airline history? Are airlines having to face up to their own 'asbestos-style' crisis or is this an 'Erin Brockovich of the skies'? For almost 50 years passengers and crews have been supplied with unfiltered air to breathe, taken directly from the aircraft engines, even though this air has long been known to be contaminated with neurotoxins, carcinogens and other hazardous chemicals.
With unique access to the aviation industry, Tristan Loraine, filmmaker and former airline captain, reveals for the first time the serious consequences this exposure has had on flight safety, and passenger and crew health, including his own.
