Finally serious attention is being paid the condition known as Aerotoxic Syndrome after those affected have battled against large corporate interests, who suppressed the truth for years. It is worth remembering that in spite of the excellent reporting of new evidence on the BBC's Today Program this morning, that contrary to that report; 100% of the air that you breathe (not 50% as reported) on an aircraft comes through its engines. Therefore any leak or vaporisation of the highly toxic engine oil leaves occupants exposed to the possibility of poisoning. For more information, see my article The Air That You Breathe . TT
