Plane forced to land over strong chemical smell moments after taking off | Mail Online

Many people are becoming rather sick of their fellow humans being gassed in industrial numbers inside enclosed chambers and then have the cheek to pretend that they don't know why so many are ill.

Boeing absolutely know about it with their 'bleed free' B 787 - ask them. They have already told the House of Lords of the UK in 2007 - as much.

In the meantime, how about filtering the bleed air? - as a precautionary measure.

Which passenger in their right mind would begrudge paying a dollar a seat for clean air, whilst we all wait for 'bleed free' technology to appear?

Meanwhile, pilots aren't even told that 'bleed air is' not filtered.
Mostly true and properly addressed

Will filtering solve the problem? or is it like using screens in front of engines to stop the birds

What size filter is needed ?

What standard does it have to meet ?
