Air Support in Antarctica
He walked back - only 3 kms - we made off and were waiting for him - out of doors pressure washer on whole man and kit to start with until the run off was less yellow and brown, then all his outer clothes off and him in the shower for about 30 minutes - I think the outerwear was left to steep in an outhouse for several days, dried and then washed on its own until acceptable. He only smelt of penguin for a few days .................
A similar case involving a skunk in the USA meant house arrest for a week (family moved out to neighbours and food left on the doorstep for each meal) and all clothes buried in a pit in the back lot - too bad to recover or burn and the local waste operatives wouldn't touch any container. TBF the guy who was skunked DID offer to come into the office to work but the Company decided to pay him to stay away.

I'm not rotary, but never get tired of this view.
I once saw a documentary where a skunk attack was washed out of clothes by use of tomato juice.
Would that work for penguin poop as well?
Probably only ketchup in Antarctica?

Well, not always. But this is as close as you need to be, IMO
Unless you're flying for the French, where they put the fuel drums in the middle of a colony 100nm from base. The second machine landed on a nest under construction (pebbles, size and shape being Very Important to the male penguins to attract the good looking sheilas) and whilst pumping fuel, the aggrieved nest owner returned and started rebuilding across the skid. Rotors running
Bear - the guy I knew who was skunked in the States bathed in tomato juice while he was "self isolated" - it does actually seem to work but his clothes were a write-off - as I said you can only bury them, deep. The smell is literally unbelievable.
