What if the pilot had his lunch tray in his lap? FA leans over, perhaps to give him a cup of coffee, and leans on the possibly broken cover of the seat switch? Could the tray get pinched between the...

ATC Watcher

A further question here - what exactly is meant by "contaminated"? Most here seem to be equating that to "infected" - but IMHO, it's equally likely that they mean "exposed" people who...

I was more concerned with the follow-up statement: "It is unclear how many passengers were on board either planes." Is it common to force the passengers to remain onboard for 10 days?

These planes have been sitting for months. Now they're being moved to a storage facility. Is that an indication that the operators have gotten the word that they won't be flying any time soon?
