This is pretty bizarre, but at the same time, this guy sounds credible.

I call BS.

These guys are offering to work on the lavs of all these heavies all over America and nobody questions it?

Also, fair enough the other engineers don't notice the extra tanks and what not in the back, but somebody would have to notice the the extra fill valve, the hoses going to the hollow wicks, and the hollow wicks themselves.

I think this is part of the greater conspiracy theory found at http://www.chemtrailcentral.com

I can't believe people stupid enough to believe these formula written, non-specific e-mail stories have the cognitive ability to become pilots.

Well i think that if "THEY" are to read this then "THEY" are gonna know exactly who "HE" is.

Seems to me that there is way more weird crap going on these days than we would ever care to know about. Why would chemicals be sprayed from commercial aircraft, who the hell knows?? - but then again why would anyone waste their time writing seemingly credible reports about something that is pure fiction, and for what motivation? I guess it's along the lines of the little green men and alien abductions, the delusional product of people with way too much time on their hands.

nothing from my bowels would fit through a hollowed out static wick unless it had an inner diameter if about 2 inches!!!

Amen, brother.

Give your brain a chance, Swede. You're always looking for conspiracy theories so this junk is right up your alley.

In addition to other comments, the W & B would have to falsified each year to cover up all the extra piping etc.

Sure....: Pure trash! Absolute nonsense! Total fiction!

Probably the single biggest flaw in that fiction is that there is no way in hell such a system could exist (even if there was room for all of that extra equipment and plumbing - which there isn't) without the vast majority of the mechanics who work on the airplane on a regular basis knowing about it. None.

The world is full of this kind of BS.
It is called urban legends and conspiracy theories.
With the Internet, everyone can be anonymous.
Same type of BS that was spread about Tim Hortons Coffee being laced with extra caffiene and chemicals and any other type of BS.
Now, if names were namd, airports and/or airlines named, i might believe.

sounds fair to me, I'm not arguing that this report is b.s or otherwise. I wanted to hear an opinion from a guy who wrenches on the things, nothing more.

I have worked on the ramp for a few year at an aicraft handling company. We had "the chance" to empty the shitter and fill up the lavs after that.
We would put, ourself, that "blue "product that you find in any other lav + some water from that dirty hose, inside the truck tank and that's what we would use to fill up the lavatories.
There is only one plug per toilet. It was about 5 gallons per tanks. There is also another filling plug fro the water (located at another location, for obvious reason)
Even if there is some extra tank inside ( I don't know that ), there is nobody around to fill it up during turn around. (If another truck was to pull over to work on the aircraft I can tell you that we would notice unless THEY would fill them up from inside....).
If there's a conspiracy, that would be inside hangar, out of view of everybody but this another story I guess....
I heard the governement put some secret chemical in our food and everytime we fart it's a bit of brain cells killer vapor that we are releasing in the atmosphere. (some smell even very bad, an this is no secret cover up

)
