OK, who's responsible?
Another family pelted with poo

Another family say they too have had their property splattered by what they believe is human excrement dropped from a plane.
John Thompson contacted the Herald after reading about the Burns family in Karaka, who were hit twice by excrement they suspected came from an aeroplane.
The Burns had the substance ESR-tested the second time and the results revealed that it was, in fact, human waste.
Mr Thompson, his wife Darrell and their three sons have had to clean up the mess three times in the past three years. The family refer to the hits - which have happened once each year since 2008 - as "**** bombs".
"The first one was the worst," Mr Thompson said. "The south side of our house was completely and utterly caked. You can tell it's come from a high point because of the splatter ... it was well-splattered."
In the second incident, in 2009, the east side of the house was splattered and last year a small part of the home was covered, as well as the driveway and one of the family's vehicles. Each incident happened during the night and when no one was outside.
Like the Burns, Mr Thompson said they contacted the Civil Aviation Authority, but were told to prove that it had come from a plane.
He did not pursue the matter as, like the Burns, he felt as if he was being fobbed off by authorities.
Asked whether it could have been avian excrement, Mr Thompson said that that would be hard to believe, given the strong smell of human waste.
The Civil Aviation Authority yesterday said that it had received about 30 complaints of similar happenings in 2003, but had no record of Mr Thompson's call.
The authority's inquiries with the Department of Conservation had, however, found that they were all attributed to ducks in the area.
Spokeswoman Emma Peel said yesterday that the authority did not question the results of the ESR tests taken from Mr Burns' property, but maintained that it could not have come from a plane as there were no aircraft flying in the area at the time.
She said that aircraft did not have a "casual release latch" that could easily be removed in mid-air.
"There are latches and valves going from the toilet to a main holding tank to more valves and another latch. It's not something easily emptied."

OK Guys,
Do ANY acft 'dump' in flight..??
I can understand an International flight out over the 'ocean blue' adding a little more 'bloo'...
And I am aware that domestics empty the tanks at destinations which have the 'honey cart' facility....
(In Broome for example, the honey cart sewer is directly under the 'CAGRO' tower like building... - air con 'ON'.... )
Cheers

Is this guy thick? If it's human waste, I would bet my last dollar that an acquaintance of one or more of his three sons has something to do with it. He should be looking into his sons' activities.

I was just thinking about that movie with Joe Dirt(e) carrying around his "Boeing bomb" which he thought was a meteorite. I then digressed to recall his t-shirt which said "I choked Linda Lovelace."

Wouldn't a turd dropped from 30,000ft be a fine mist by the time it hit a house? Unless there were some serious fibre issues from the individual(s) dropping said turds into to dunny.
Nzherald reporting another incident. Aucklander's are full of **** anyway.
Anyway back to Joe Dirt, if she was hot and you didn't now she was your sister, would ya? Tasmanian's excluded cos we know that even if she is your sister and she's butt ugly...

The aircraft toilet sinks drain to the outside - perhaps someone has been going in the sink? 
It would be easy to prove if it's aircraft waste, as aircraft waste is mixed with a blue (artificially coloured) toilet deodoriser/disinfectant chemical.
