Aircraft dumpng toilet contents above Maastricht

Postby Ivan » Tue Nov 16, 2004 3:21 am

There are rumours that aircraft dump their toilet tank contents above Maastricht before landing so they have a shorter turnaround time...

I'm sure there are many people from Amsterdam renting planes just so they can empty their bowels over Maastricht :D

In the 70's and 80's there were many complaints of 2 liter soda bottle size pieces a refuse falling from the sky over america...so I would believe that..
