To the "Lady" on the flight going from MSP-SFO, sitting row 23 the other night (if you happen to read this). I was sitting two rows behind you reading on my ipad. You were asleep and let out the most disgusting fart I have ever heard (even over the muffled sound of engines, air conditioning and passenger chit-chat), and smelled. In fact the stench was so bad, me and the other passengers behind you were pretty sure you crapped your pants. While you blissfully slept, your fellow passengers endured a full 7-8 minutes of hell as we were strapped into our seats and unable to escape it the poisoned air.

Sheesh... couldn't even open a window.Lucky for you the pilot was the other side of a locked door. Where's the marshal when you need one?There's something very amusing about the word 'stench'. Especially when it happens to someone else.

Lol.

thats what happens when the airlines contract a major chilli company to supply inflight meals

:(:(

I am lucky. If I turn on the recirculating fan then it sucks my fart down to my feet and through the filters and back out into the cabin nice and fresh. haha

No they won't, we're talking gas here (mainly H2S - Hydrogen Sulfide), not particles. :(FWIW:

1. H2S is a lethal gas in sufficient concentration, so the TSA ought to be alerted so they can add the appropriate tests to check passengers for any gas emanations prior to boarding,
2. Humans are responsible for 10% of H2S globally released into the atmosphere, and
3. The human body uses H2S as a signalling agent in the brain where it increases the response of the NMDA receptor and facilitates long term potentiation involved in the formation of memory ...

... which is why nearby psasengers will remember the lady in Row 23 for a very, very long time!Cheers,- jahman.

LOL! Funny replies. Yeah, it was pretty bad. On a sidenote, I am now afraid to fall asleep for fear that I could do the same thing. No exciting meals before flying anymore for me!

.

LOL, this is the funniest airline story I've heard in a while!

LADY? I doubt it!

LOL! She was petite, wearing a business skirt and wasn't bad looking... who would have thought.

Ohh, yes you might be right. I just heard so often the filters would filter out odors as well, but you are right, I don't know what happens if gases cause them. :(

"..filter out odors as well.."Activated charcoal's yer man for that..EDIT: Incidentally, does she know the man in seat 61?http://www.seat61.com/
