Aerotoxic Syndrome is aviation’s darkest secret, yet the cause of this toxic illness has never been formally accepted – despite it doing incalculable damage to aircrew and passengers’ health for over half a century; exposure to carbon monoxide and deadly neurotoxins that leak from jet engines into cabin air makes countless flyers seriously ill, and has led to some deaths.
Every airliner today - with the sole exception of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner - is pressurised by air coming from compressors built into the aircraft's jet engines. This is much cheaper than utilizing separate compressors BUT at a much higher cost to crew and passenger health, through contamination.
But there is huge pressure on the aviation industry and its government backers to systematically deny its existence. Solutions exist for this problem but the industry would rather avoid the expense of adopting them.
