Question:

Airplane waste?

My sister and I were out in our backyard under the back patio roof on a sunny day. When we walked out from under the roof there was a slight, cooling mist that sprinkled down on us. At first it was refreshing, but then I noticed that there wasn't a single dark cloud in the sky.

Then, it dawned on me when I heard the muffled roaring of an airplane way in the distance. The plane was not visible, but it could be heard. We couldn't locate it in the sky, but I gave out a little cry b/c I realized that we were possibly being sprinkled with airplane waste!

Can this happen? When waste (like pee) falls high from the sky, does it scatter down like precipitation and land on people?

  1. Human waste is stored, BUT the wash hand basin is NOT that comes out of the aircraft, also if the plane was decending then Ice can fall and it sometimes does land in big chunks there are reported incidents of houses & cars being hit by lumps of ice from decending aircraft mostly on flight paths close to airports


  2. no, plane waste is stored in a tank until the plane lands

  3. Yes, it is also bottled and sold as Mountain Dew.
