'Smelly poo' causes plane to land.

    A plane was forced to go back to the airport and land because somebody had done a "smelly poo".

    The plane was heading from London Heathrow to Dubai on Thursday.

    It should have been a seven-hour flight but the pilot had to return to the airport after just 30 minutes.

    Abhishek Sachdev, a passenger on the plane, tweeted: "Our BA flight to Dubai returned back to Heathrow because of a smelly poo in the toilet."

    It's thought somebody had some toilet trouble during the flight and caused a bit of a stink.

    Some of the air in a plane's cabin is recycled, so it was judged safest to land the plane instead of letting the smelly air circulate in the cabin.

    This is brilliant. I may have done some smelly bathroom visits in my time, but never quite managed to cause a plane to land as a result. What an achievement!

    Thanks that made me chuckle. I wonder did they know who the culprit was, I can't imagine anyone complaining about turning back.

    Made me laugh too :D

    Apparently they got put up in a hotel for the night, but yeah doubt I'd be complaining too much either.

    Being so early in the flight I would speculate that the passengers knew the identity of the pooer. Kay, back to you


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,648 ✭✭✭Zippie84


    Would be kinda crap for anybody who really needed to get to Dubai that night though... but sure guess there's not much you can poo about it....

    recipe ?

    Boiled eggs, kebab and a few pints of stout.

  • Registered Users Posts: 265 ✭✭FueledbyCoffee


    Dubai 7 hours !

    How did they manage that though, what were they eating ?

    Also can you imagine hearing the Captain coming on to give the announcement?

    Someone left King Kong's finger in the bowl :D

    Lol.

    Abhishek Sachdev, who was on board tweeted: "Insane. Our BA flight to Dubai returned back to Heathrow because of a smelly poo in the toilet."

    He told a newspaper: "The pilot made an announcement requesting senior cabin crew, and we knew something was a bit odd.

    "About 10 minutes later he said 'you may have noticed there's a quite pungent smell coming from one of the toilets'.

    "He said it was liquid faecal excrement. Those are the words he used."

    That hole wasn't 'plain' judging by the reports....

    Not surprised because he certainly topped my list of suspects.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,457 ✭✭✭lee_baby_simms


    Well it's safe to say he certainly browned off a few people on that flight.

    Sounds like the system was completely blocked up after 30 minutes, just imagine what it would be like after seven hours! :eek:

    Whoever pilots the plane, shoulders the blame.

    I'm told Fulton Crown was heading over to Asia on Important Company Business on the day in question.

    In reality it was a bit worse than a smelly poo, there was a leak and liquid was flowing from the toilets down the aisle.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,618 ✭✭✭The Diabolical Monocle


    Maybe thats what caused some of those mystery crashes/disappearances - someone just dropped a particularly hearty deuce.

    Jesus! :eek: What did they do? Turn themselves inside out? Left half their bodyweight in the bowl?

    Poor fcuker must have had serious ring sting after that :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,104 ✭✭✭FourFourRED


    They decided to turn back after some of the passengers kicked up a stink about it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,674 ✭✭✭AllGunsBlazing


    Turn back?!! Why didn't they just open a window?


    Oh...right...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    There use to be a phantom sh1tter on the buses years ago.

    He would take a dump in under a panel he would remove upstairs and of course replace so nobody could understand where the smell was coming from.

    These days they are nice enough to do it on the seat instead.

    Easy to identify the culprit, he/she were the ones who ordered the savlon cream off the hostess

    Sure no local's jax is the same without some kind of black, double-coated pebbledash 'adorning' the back of the bowl

    Being so early in the flight I would speculate that the passengers knew the identity of the pooer. Kay, back to you

    I believe it was Passenger Number 2.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,370 ✭✭✭✭Son Of A Vidic


    I bet if it was Ryanair they would have just kept going.

    And then charge you extra for the 'enhanced' experience.
