What if the aviation industry was hiding something from the population, imperative and controversial to the point of making us all reconsider flying all together? This chilling documentary does exactly that. Doctors, scientists, pilots and passengers share their knowledge and personal experiences in this controversial exposé dissecting the air quality in aircrafts and the effects it can have on our health. Passengers simply assume there are safe filtering systems in the aircrafts they travel in – little do they know, that the air goes through the engines, causing contamination when there is a leak or slightest malfunction. The toxic fumes have at times incapacitated pilots to the point of seriously endangering the safety of everyone on board. AN important number of pilots, flight attendants and regular passengers have suffered from a condition called “toxic air syndrome” and the aviation industry has been covering it up for over thirty years. No matter how frequently one flies, the experience will never be the same again after watching Welcome Aboard Toxic Airlines.

WELCOME ABOARD TOXIC AIRLINES
Feature Documentary made by award winning Fact Not Fiction Films
- “The documentary you need to watch before you next fly told by the aviation industry's biggest whistle blower!”
- "what the airlines forget to mention in the pre flight safety briefing!"
Reviews:
The Ecologist: 'A deadly corporate cover-up forensically exposed.'
County Times: 'Hard-hitting Michael Moore-style.'
The Daily Telegraph: 'A ground-breaking documentary that raises serious questions about the air that passengers breathe.'
What's it all about?
Welcome Aboard Toxic Airlines tells the story of what some airline crews claim is the biggest cover up in aviation history. Passengers and crews for nearly fifty years have been supplied with unfiltered air to breath, taken directly from the engines, even though this air supply is known to become contaminated with engine oils containing neurotoxins, carcinogens and other hazardous chemicals.
The unique documentary film reveals an issue many call the asbestos of the aviation industry, revealing how passengers and crews are known to be exposed to these fumes leaking directly into the aircraft air supply with the airline industry failing to inform the travelling public of the problems.
