You're up your own ass mate!!

Perhaps when God was handing out brains, you were at the end of the queue and missed out. Thin about some of these words: Sarcasm, humour, wit.

You don't by chance, happen to be from the USA??

Hey!!!

what does being from the US has to do with anything?

Please explain

PS: as some one as familiar with the way people in the US behave as you. I am sure you would know that "Mate" is not a term Americans use addressing each other.

My post with pics was intended to be only for fun.

No reason really for any kind of shit fest at all.

Let's just do the Rodney thing minus his early but wealthy death.

So where was it? What airline out of curiosity (not that it makes a difference, doubt it is linked to the airline, just a strange happening)

Start of flight? You mention boarding, is that when it happened.

More info please, got me curious smile.png

It was Puerto Princesa, Palwawan, a place in the PI I hadn't visited in my years spent in the PI.

I'm trying to figure out where to visit next. The Missus can't help as she's programed from birth I think to say "up to you". I'd like to share decisions like that with her but also wonder if i want to wake a potential sleeping lion? 555

!!! I used to work in Palawan, what are the odds. Spent a couple of amazing years there in my early twenties.

I thought I recognised a lot of people inside that plane in the photo.

Oh, wait.

OP, Is that smoke, steam, or another vapor? The cabin pressure is powered by the engines and the system can get fluid in it if it has a maintenance problem.

The pressurized air is called "bleed air" because it's air that is bled off the jet engine's compressors. There is also an air dryer in the system to help dry humid air before it enters the cabin. There is also a filtration system. (Simplified description but true.)

I would guess there is a failure in the bleed air system that is allowing an oil leak to vaporize oil, or a problem with dehumidifying or filtering, all of which would allow vapor into the cabin. The question is "what is the vapor"?

"The Air con worked fine on this flight."

OP, did the aircon work fine when the plane was on the ground as well as in flight? If it did the aircon was working. The temperature of the air decreases by 3 degrees F with each 1,000 feet the plane climbs. Even if the temperature outside is 100 degrees F (38C) on the ground, it will be below freezing at altitude. The plane actually needs heat to the cabin at altitude. The bleed air from the engines is humidity and temperature adjusted just before it enters the cabin. Something was truly wrong.
