Amazing this story does not seem to have gotten more coverage over the years or on youtube, people are more interested in watching a plane crash than the fact the airlines have covered up giving god knows how many passengers and crew serious long term health issues. What is so hard to understand is why they did not find a way to fix it or aircraft manufactures simply change the system much earlier on; seems they simply did not want to admit a problem and perpetuated a lie for far too long.

I am a flight attendant of 13 years who has been diagnosed with Toxic Encephalopathy as well as diagnosed with "Aerotoxic Syndrome" by leading occupational and Environmental specialist in the USA. I have become completely disabled due to exposure to these toxic fumes at work on the Boeing 737. Very real problem, and a very real health issue for passengers and flight crew alike!!
