BALPA on the Cranfield Study
Wednesday, 08 June 2011 17:27

| BALPA LOG Magazine on Cabin Air Quality June/July 2011 – 8th June 2011
Magazine article text:
CABIN AIR QUALITY The results of the Cranfield study are still delayed, due to the peer review process. We are informed that they will be presented in May 2011 to the Seattle Aerospace Medical Association.
Aerotoxic Association comment 9th June 2011:
The Cranfield University Study was published on 10th May 2011 and has already drawn strong criticism from many experts of its peer review process with its inability and unwillingness to identify and publicise the identity of the substances in a fume event, which the UK House of Lords Science and Technology Committee specifically recommended should be done urgently in 2007.

BALPA: Health effects of contaminants in cabin air
Friday, 08 April 2011 08:30
|
|
| This is the document on cabin air quality that is available to BALPA members, written by Dr Sandy Mitchell. We believe it contains a lot of factually-incorrect information and gives the impression that the problem is negligible. Suggesting that affected crews are suffering from hyperventilation and that people who remove themselves from exposure always recover their health is misleading.

AHWG being wound up
Wednesday, 16 March 2011 12:39

| In the UK, the Department for Transport has announced that it is closing down the Aviation Health Working Group. After ten years, the department seems happy that the group has run its course and is no longer needed. In those ten years, £400,000 of taxpayers' money has been spent, no meaningful research had been completed and Cranfield University have not published their Cabin Air Quality study. It has hardly been a glowing success and has in no way fulfilled its intended role. |

Her first reaction was to thank her many friends who had stood by her. She said “I am so grateful to those thousands of patients and medical colleagues who knew that I was a good doctor who had done nothing wrong and kept their faith in me. Without their help and support I would have struggled to find the strength to fight.”

These are reports on matters that affect flight safety and are submitted by aircrew of UK-registered airlines to their respective employers, who then forward them to the CAA.
At our request the CAA have been sending us the reports and we now look at a typical month, June 2010. We continue to be very concerned by the number of incidents concerning oil fumes. |

Organophosphates and suicidal tendencies
Tuesday, 24 August 2010 00:00

| The following letter was published in the ‘Farmers Guardian’ on 20th August 2010. The author highlights a document produced in the UK by the Health & Safety Executive which lists “suicidal intent” as one of the chronic symptoms of organophosphate (OP) poisoning. As it has been shown thay OPs in the form of tricresyl phosphate regularly get into airliner cabins, it is no coincidence that some of our members have felt so ill that thoughts of suicide have also entered their minds. |

Confidential paper on contaminated cabin air leaked to the German press

The document is from the Bundesverband der Deutschen Fluggesellschaften, BDF (Association of German airlines) and reveals their concerns of further media attention on the subject of contaminated cabin air. It urges its members to do their best to keep attention away from passengers who have been affected by contaminated cabin air, to keep quiet about the issue, and if they do have to speak, to make sure they all have their stories straight. |

It also contains an informative section “Organophosphates under the spotlight” and a case study of an affected pilot.

Fixes including air filters, fume detectors and less toxic oil are all available today, but are still not required by law and are not implemented by airlines.

What seems alarming is that this instruction on fault-finding gives the pilots no advice about the neurotoxic health effects of the fumes, and in fact describes their regular occurrence as normal, contrary to Boeing who describe these events as “rare”.
