How safe is the air you breathe on planes? BBC News



17 former and serving cabin crew is planning legal action against British airlines, claiming
 they have been poisoned by contaminated air. Reports submitted to the air safety watchdog
 here in the UK, shows that there are hundreds of so-called fume events, each year - where 
engine oil and other toxic chemicals. May has leaked from the engines into the plane itself. 
The industry,  though, says there is no scientific evidence of any danger to public health. 
From our point of view, it is an issue should be investigated deeply following toxycological 
researches, and not only technical searching.
