"The head of in-flight safety for British Airways has admitted that passengers can be 'incapacitated' by toxic fumes on planes.
"Mark Mannering-Smith reportedly wrote on an internal online forum that cabin fumes can be toxic and therefore hurt crew and travellers.


I'm a northern plain thinking guy. I sense the beginning of a never ending debate about scientific analysis & conclusions about this issue, and what the true results are. There seem to be two camps.
Thinking in simple terms, why would the of Head of In-fight Safety at BA make such a statement without some belief that it is true? Either he knows something that the posters on here do not, or he was not thinking clearly. Perhaps even having that belief he should have kept it quiet until more was known and solution found. So, perhaps he's both of my options.
What has been the response of the Airline Passengers Group?
