![]() "Viperdoc" wrote in message ... In flight surgeon training in Texas we got to take a ride (and still need to do so periodically) in the high altitude chamber, as do all current people on flying status. Since gases expand as the ambient pressure decreases, we were told to simply let it go when the urge arose. Considering we were in Texas and eating a lot of Mexican food including beans, this produced a lot of gas. So, at high altitude, is it appropriate to say excuse me, ignore the flatulence, or look at the guy in the next seat with disgust, as if he (she)were the source? What is the proper etiquette with pilots of different gender? In fact, how does one use a relief tube with an FO of the other gender, or vice versa? What is the correct response in these circumstances? These questions address important aspects of flying that simply can not be reproduced in the sim, so any help would be appreciated. My first course of action is to blame the family pet but since he is not always available I usually go with B. look at my partner with disgust. That doesn't always work if there are only two of us though! -- *H. Allen Smith* WACO - We are all here, because we are not all there. |

I had to laugh at this... 'cause it happened to me ![]() I was flying a Caravan this summer, doing the White Plains - Nantucket run and one of our trips out of ACK had an older couple with a 70lb yellow Lab. Well, on climbout I was chatting with the other pilot and we both got a whiff of dog ass that made us look at each other with that "jeezus what the hell was that" look. Turns out the Lab was laying down in the aisle, right behind us between his owners. It must have been the climb, because that mutt let 'em rip all the way up to cruise alt and then again all the way down. I don't know what those people feed that dog, but he sure as hell could use a change in his diet. I can only imagine what the folks in the other seats thought. At least nobody blamed me. |

Dogs are carnivores, and a diet high in meat produces a lot of volatile, foul-smelling compounds in the GI tract that are responsible for much of the odor of their flatus. The same principle applies to omnivores such as human beings, meaning that meat-eating human beings produce more odor than vegetarians. These odors apply not only to flatus but also to feces themselves. |
