Aerotoxic Poisoning

EDM number 927 in 2014-15, proposed by Angus MacNeil on 25/03/2015.
Categorised under the topics of Aviation and Pollution.

That this House believes that passengers and crews should be informed by airlines when they have been exposed to contaminated air on UK registered aircraft, and that aircraft cabin air should be monitored with meters due to fears that the 'bleed air' compressed from the engines on most aircraft, that allows high-altitude pressurised flying, is unfiltered and could on occasions contain pyrolised or decomposing synthetic jet engine oils which may enter the cabin air supply and cause toxification of passengers and crew with risk to crew performance; and praises the film A Dark Reflection for raising the issue.
