Assalamu alaikum.

Wa alaikum salam.

Assalamu alaikum.

Wa alaikum salam.

I'll give you the bag. You can wear it. God willing.

Where's Alta?

Impossible. I didn't go there yesterday.

Don't fool yourself.

Go or I'll kill you.

to this pile.

Come on, let's go.

This story could go global.

If you were followed.

We weren't.

I don't understand how you found me. Mr. Kamea, one week ago, your people told

our agency, international media, that you would fight this election to ensure

democracy.

It's time for the next episode!

Look, Miss Eastman, I want to be clear about this. I only need cover for eight,

nine months max.

Fine.

Let's get something straight from the outset. We might be small beer to you,

this is a quality local newspaper.

We're about ethics, integrity. We set the standard in Southwark.

It's what we're called.

Sorry.

It matters.

So, if you get the job, have you got a place to stay locally?

Laurel Street.

Brave. Mr. Robertson, do I have the contract?

Suffolk Standard Rate?

The interviews with a local health campaigner, Judy Stewart?

She's written a book on toxins and, uh... It's

what reporters do, isn't it?

Can you hear me, lovely?

I'm heading for Darlow's farm, so take a look.

Tony, what's happened? Just give us a sec.

We'll clear the scene.

Is she going to be all right?

40 boiler.

Carbon monoxide fumes seeped into the daughter's bedroom.

Her mother couldn't wake her this morning.

Oh, God.

It's not looking good.

Our bodies are assaulted by toxins in so many ways.

You've achieved so much. I mean, the book, the campaign.

It's really raised awareness.

And so will your newspaper's coverage.

Oh, can I check?

The word organophosphate, the bad boy that we all need to avoid.

It's all in there.

Farm and factory workers, soldiers, crew, people affected every day

by... Julie, I do have another meeting to go to.

OK, no worries.

Hi.

Just as it is.

I meant what I said.

So did I.

I'm not giving up on it, Jo.

Thanks.

I've left London.

I've come here to be with you.

I've got a job on a local paper.

This isn't just about us, is it?

Joe, what's wrong?

I've been suspended from all air traffic control duties.

Why?

A Jasper 737 failed to reduce to its final approach speed before landing. Oh,

God. I finally got them to go around, but it was weird.

Like they were asleep.

Anyway, it's half of the near myth, so... Oh, Joe, they can't think.

I'm beginning to wonder if I made a mistake.

My head... The day after, your... My head was full of dead politicians,

photographers.

Two days, Helen, two days before you called me.

I'm sorry.

It was mad over there. I didn't know whether Tom was going to live. Oh, well,

know just how that feels.

If I lose my job, my career... No, you won't.

It sounds like the pilots were at fault.

They're certainly keeping a tight lid on it.

Good evening, madam.

Good evening, sir.

Hello, Greg.

Ben.

Mrs. Till.

And we will announce...

As safe as houses. Or as a JASP aircraft.

That's why I don't allow mobile phones in my dining room.

Our daughter has some health issues.

Yes, they're wonderful.

If you'll all please excuse me.

The

same

aircraft.

Yeah, I understand.

No, no, look, that's fine. You... You tell Alan to come to my office first

thing.

Okay.

There.

So... Will you wait to move in until after Tanya's operation?

You must be so delighted it's gone through.

Dreadful business, renting, isn't it?

Oh, before all this, I had my fair share of flatting.

How did you and Charles meet?

I was the first Mrs Jasper's PA for 15 years.

Charles hated being a widower.

He proposed to me in Geneva less than six months after Elizabeth... Death. I

didn't realise.

That he'd been married before.

That Charles was such a romantic.

Oh, no!

It was the annual aviation conference.

Eve was very quiet tonight.

She has a lot on her mind. Of course.

Family is very important, as is a wife.

Two of our biggest investors were at that table tonight.

Eve needs to understand.

The wife of a CEO has a very important role to play.

November 1 -5 Tango, turn right heading 240 degrees and descend to altitude 3

,000 feet, cleared ILS, QNH 1013.

1 -5 Tango, head 240 down to 3 ,000, cleared ILS.

JAS 313, reduce to final approach speed.

Aero 1 -2 -Alpha, reduce speed all 1 -6 -0 -0 -4 -DME and contact cell 1 -2 -4

-2 -2 -5.

1 -6 -0 -4 -1 -2 -4 -2 -2 -5, Aero 1 -2 -Alpha.

JAS 3 -1 -3, confirm speed.

1 -7 -0.

JAS 3 -1 -3, go around, I say again, go around, stand at missed approach,

acknowledge.

Just three one three go around I say again So

it's

definitely the same aircraft at the flight three one three approach incident

absolutely echo Lima

After that, we had to take the aircraft off the line.

It's in engineering.

Have you spoken to the engine manufacturer?

No. Come on.

Today. Keep me informed.

Remind me a bit of the boss.

The five o 'clock shadow.

The cynicism.

And you were both shortlisted for the big award.

And lost.

You should get back on Twitter.

When I've got something to tweet about, I will.

Johnny!

Hey, where did you put that?

I'll see you at the awards.

April, four months on the Hong Kong Standard.

I have to say.

Johnny, before you go, do you know anything about a girl that was brought

from Barlow's farm?

It's seal poison. Yeah, she'll be all right.

I'm not going to be awake, though.

Here, for a drink, yeah?

Yeah, great.

Helen, you emailed the photo yet?

Yeah, in a minute.

I need it now, for the website.

Maybe to join us, Helen.

So, what have you got? We need to fill a gaping hole on page four.

Well, Tasha's done a piece on the pesticide campaigner. Judy Stewart,

clean copy.

Starting to nod off.

I've got a profile piece on the new risk assessment management... Almost asleep.

No, OK.

Or a small news story on Barlow's chicken farm... And asleep.

What have you got lined up this afternoon?

So far, just the local girl who's got a scholarship for the RAF. That's just a

picture story.

Reschedule it and find a location with a plane in shot.

Anything else?

Well, there was a near miss.

Gatwick Airport.

When?

16th.

Oh, news.

You want a story on Gatwick?

Here, it's a marine. Some sort of break -in.

And if you lot have got nothing else, which you obviously haven't, let's put

some crime on the page.

Chop, chop.

What?

We're vintage.

unquestioning loyalty.

But then, of course, you and Eve understand that.

Sure.

The procedure for loading a shotgun.

Safety on.

Safety on.

Load the gun.

Load the gun.

Are you trying to do away with your grandfather?

Look, this is an easy mistake to make. This is a 20 -ball cartridge.

for your gun.

We put it in there.

I can't see it. I put in the 12 -4 that belongs there.

Now, if I pull this trigger, it'll blow the barrels and possibly my head clean

apart.

What? Don't worry. It's all part of the learning process.

Things you can't see can sometimes be very dangerous.

Dave?

And we've had to cancel six flights.

Why is it still in engineering?

Alan Morgan has confirmed it's not an engine performance issue. Well, the

plants have carried out successful ground work. Well, there's your answer.

Put the aircraft back into service.

Yeah, but it's not just about engine performance. Look, if Alan Morgan has

signed it off, the CAA will be satisfied.

And so will I.

Civil Aviation Authority.

Press office, please.

Yes,

I understand that, but... Just slides put in accordance with CAA rules and

guidelines.

I'm sorry, could you repeat that, please?

Just slides put in accordance with CAA rules and guidelines.

Yes, of course they do.

So what's this hashtag carbon monoxide tweet?

How did you know about the near -miss at Gatwick?

Then what we'll see will give you a much better idea.

Right.

Now, deep inside there are the oil -bearing seals we were talking about.

pressure keeps them sealed, so by design...

Wait. Alan.

So you're telling me that Echolima's engine field leak oil?

It's a small amount.

What sort of replacement?

I've told you, they're designed to leak. Changing the seals is like a complete

engine overhaul. You know the cost of that.

We need to cut costs if we're to meet the third quarter target.

Alan, I come from the offshore oil industry. If the field is compromised...

is totally different.

It's not a safety issue.

Really?

What about flight 313?

So then I called the CAA.

It says... Jasper flies in accordance with CAA rules and guidelines.

I suppose that's their standard reply.

But I hadn't mentioned Jasper.

They answered a question I had not.

Earlier domestic flights had been cancelled, so there's no reason to think

pilots were fatigued.

So you think carbon monoxide?

Perhaps. There's some stuff on the internet about CO leaks from aircraft,

So we should speak to a pilot at Gatwick.

No, not Gatwick.

That's where Joe's based, I promise. Well, Shoreham Airport, then. It's only

like half an hour away.

What's the matter?

Come on, this isn't just some photo story.

I've been stonewalled by the Civil Aviation Authority and Britain's largest

growing airline, not to mention the government department.

Think about it. Think about what, who I'd be taking on.

We'd be taking on.

Well, you know what happened to the last guy I worked with.

Excellent. Thank you very much, everyone.

Thank you.

Can I have a word?

I'll see you out there.

There's been a few calls about flight 313.

I thought it was agreed that once the facts were cleared with air traffic

control, the air accident team would conclude their investigation.

The calls came into the press office.

Hello, Helen Eastman.

And this is Natasha.

Hi. Oh, yeah. A journalist.

How can I help?

Could carbon monoxide be a risk to pilots?

Sure. It caused many plane crashes.

But that was years ago.

Let me show you.

See the white square of the circle?

The ore detector.

If the Earth contaminated with carbon monoxide, the circle changes colour.

Okay. Thank you.

Sure.

J .D. tells me the online hits for Natasha's interview with Judy Stewart

double those than any other article.

My brief was to give the readers what they want.

Clearly, they want more issue -led column inches.

So what do you have in mind?

I have a lead on a very big story, an issue very relevant to our readers.

Is it another carbon monoxide expose?

Give me ten days.

Four. Eight. Six.

A week in Natasha.

You're too good for me.

And then get yourself down to the museum at Gatwick.

Sweetie.

You must be Molly's father.

Helen Eastman, standard.

Jeremy Adamson.

We're very proud of Molly.

Right, so, chip off the old blog.

What about over here? Oh, no, Molly handled this beautifully. It'll be fine.

You seem to know a bit about aviation.

Not as much as she thought she did.

Just fair?

That's so funny. Helen's boyfriend was the air traffic controller when... I'm

sure Captain Adamson doesn't want to talk shop when he's off duty.

On or off duty, you should know.

Fair crew can't talk to the media.

Molly.

That was unprofessional.

Sorry, I just... But youthful.

Let me see the notes of the Judy Stewart interview.

Crew?

Aircrew.

Hi.

What the hell were you doing ringing Jasper?

Well, you asked me to try... I asked for your help, Helen, not destroy my

career. All this crap about carbon monoxide tweets.

I've dropped all that bigger stuff.

My career is hanging by a thread and you're making things worse.

No, I am simply... So you didn't call Jasper? I called Jasper, and I'm no

amateur. I didn't use the office line or leave my name.

If they know it was me, they went to a great deal of trouble to find out.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Sorry, say again?

Yeah, okay.

All right, thanks for that.

I never knew you were a pilot.

I'm not.

My dream was to own an airline, not fly for one.

Peter Stevens rang me this morning.

He was curious to know why my CEO was asking so many questions about his

engine seals.

Well... If he has an issue... I've known Peter since Harrow.

I was conducting business with him while you were no doubt still in short

trousers.

Echo Lima has been a great concern for me. And after what happened with Flight

313, I had to build a picture. And I've spent a lifetime building strong

business links.

Apollo 13 flew round the moon and back with Jim Lovell on board.

Perhaps man's greatest survival story.

Two days before the launch, an astronaut was replaced because they thought he

had German measles.

Difficult call for that, though, but the mission had to come first.

He was expendable.

And get the contact details from Judy Stewart, the air crew she interviewed

her book.

Do you fancy lunch at the cafe? My treat.

I was just going to grab a sandwich.

I'm meeting Johnny there on Monday.

What time?

Um, one -ish?

Yeah, I can make that.

Oh, hello.

How do you do?

Watch it.

Bloody vandals of oil everywhere.

Pete, pass me a 15 mil for the oil filter, will you?

It's going to take a good ten hours to fix.

What do you need to fix it?

I mean, the... Well, we reckon some things deserve to be preserved.

Besides, young engineers train on it. It gives them a start in life.

It's a bit of a blonder question.

But how do you start a jet engine?

Well, it don't start like a car with a battery. You need air, and lots of it,

usually ducted from an APU, a small engine at the tail of the airplane.

And once the engine's running, it sends the bleed air back through the same

ducting to the cabin.

Bleed air?

The air that's bled off from the compression section of the engine.

Pressurizes the aircraft cabin.

So the air you breathe on a plane comes from the engine.

We're lucky they have detectors.

For what?

For carbon monoxide.

Surely it would warn if stuff like oil got into the air.

Only light aircraft need CO detectors, love.

Jets have no detection systems.

Er, I prefer mayo on mine, thanks.

Might not have a choice when you fly just there.

Find out what shit's in this stuff.

There is a workplace problem resulting in chronic and acute illness amongst

flight crew.

both pilots and cabin crew.

Further, we are concerned that passengers may also be suffering from

symptoms to those exhibited by flight crew.

Is it happening in the workplace?

For us, the pilot association, the aircraft, and the answer, undoubtedly,

be yes, listening to what the speakers have said.

Turn left.

Your destination is then on the left.

If he spoke to Judy Stewart, then maybe he'll talk to her.

Hang on, Carl.

Hello? I'm looking for Captain Morris.

David Morris?

He's not on a trip.

Look, I don't have time for this right now.

Mom?

I'm sorry,

is he unwell?

Where are you being? Who are you?

Is he ill because of cockpit fumes?

My contact said that he was... Just leave us alone.

For years, the tobacco industry was successfully able to deny that there was

extension between smoking and lung cancer. In the end, the court proved

there was. The aviation industry is now in the same position that the tobacco

industry was when it was brought to the books.

Both these industries have traded people's health and safety for profit,

and now the aviation industry is at the end of its tobacco road.

Has a chasp commented?

Standard football.

Like the regulators, word for word.

Do you buy into all this?

Well, it's obvious. Nothing is obvious until it's been proven.

Let me get this straight.

You think that the plane your young man watched nearly nosedive was in some way

faulty? Yes. Some sort of fume got into the aircraft.

Which caused the pilots to nod off.

Yes. And then clearly it was more of a...

Bell's ringing.

Good work.

So stay on it, but nothing goes live until we can back it up 100%. Tasha?

Nothing goes live until we back it up 100%.

Meanwhile,

have a look at these.

Take your pick.

Well, you said I had a week to work on the story. Yes, but not to the exclusion

of everything else.

And Helen, you may want to look at that one.

And shut the door.

Yeah, Bruce, how's it hanging?

Yeah, listen, cast your pickled mind back to the 90s, yeah?

This is serious.

Time on the Melbourne News?

Was there something about pilot sickness?

Flight safety, the Senate.

Check it out for me, will you?

Thank

you.

You get the champagne.

At the end.

Champagne? Hi.

Let's go and sit over there.

So where do you want to sit?

I don't know. Somewhere up here.

But look, before we do that, can I just get one photograph to remember the race?

Oh, Helen.

Please, come on.

Over there.

Here?

I'm thinking maybe if I send a car around for you.

There we go. Thank you.

I've got to go.

Really?

You've got a big day tomorrow.

I need a drink.

Oh, come on. They will have heard the cockpit recordings.

You've got some messages.

You check them.

So, just, you know, don't let Helen complicate things.

Jasper cool right now, but, well, They know about my strength.

This could be all done and buried on Monday.

Pilot error. Just let it lie.

Make Helen let it lie.

Yeah?

There's coffee.

Oh, thanks, darling. I'll get one at the office.

See you later.

See you later.

You haven't forgotten?

No, of course not.

No.

I'll see you then.

Bye. Bye.

Mrs Morris.

Just a very sorry to learn of Captain Morris' continuing poor health.

I'm able to confirm that the current sickness pay arrangements will continue

that his pension will be unaffected.

Thank you.

It would be helpful to have a little more detail on the prognosis.

I've already told you David's brain tumour is terminal.

Yes, yes, we are aware of that.

Tragic. Can the medical advisors give any indication of how long?

You've got the front fan here, okay? The compression section along here.

And the all -round heels are around here somewhere? That's right. There's

multiple ones going along down here, yes.

Okay.

Oh, Dan, I'm sorry. I'm going to have to dash.

I'm really sorry. Can you then shave half out of me?

Yeah, sure. Thank you.

Sorry.

There have been some reports of pilots making mistakes under Not paying

attention. We think it's something to do with the air coming through from the

engine.

Imagine.

Morning, this is your captain speaking, and, yeah, I'm just going to nod off for

a bit.

If you could just keep your ears and eyes open for us.

At the hospital?

What?

Sick air crew, maybe?

Trying to turn me into some sort of whistleblower?

She's trying to help out her fella.

Tanya's young. She'll bounce back.

Major surgery.

What if... Tony.

Hey. How's it going?

She was lucky, the Barlow kid.

Yeah, um...

Tony, you need to pick your brains a little about burning oil.

What, like a chip pan fire?

No, no, no. Oil, oil.

Like this.

Synthetic oil.

Burns a lot hotter than a chip fire.

Temperatures in a jet engine get up to 400, 500 degrees.

And when it burns... Plenty of vapour.

Nice chemical cocktail.

Sticky chips.

More calories, but are less dangerous in the long run.

So what's in this stuff, then?

Let's pull it up on the VDMS.

It's all there.

Tony, I love you. This is amazing.

Thank you so much. Thanks.

This is what it said. Mist by heated products may be harmful by inhalation.

That's exactly as I read it on the screen. I'm telling you. Sorry, sorry.

Yeah. No, it was totally beneficial.

What?

Australia? Chop, chop.

Always in the forehead.

What are you laughing at?

Come on, pick up.

Helen? Hi.

You got my message.

Yeah, reinstated.

Look, I thought tonight maybe we could go out and... All right.

But tomorrow would be great.

Joe?

Joe, are you still there?

Stick to the floor. Don't go anywhere near the desk computers until you learn

the ropes.

Natasha, or should I say goodnight?

Good morning, Reverend.

Yes, goodnight. Hi.

In 2010, the High Court of Australia upheld a ruling that inhaling heated

engine oil fumes was harmful.

Not just negligence, large sums of money have changed hands. Hush money.

Well, or blood money. Make no mistake, Natasha, you're entering dangerous

territory. This is a huge industry and there's too much at stake.

You must take great care.

We should get some sleep.

Can I grab some water? Can you check the kids?

I know.

I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. Did you?

Oh, was Joe... He'll reinstated.

Oh, great.

So, my lack of sleep came from an interesting chat I had from a Reverend

in Australia.

Don't tell me you've found religion.

No, he's an Australian senator.

Chaired an inquiry on contaminated air on aircraft.

I was thinking, if maybe we could get a British politician... It's a bit early

for all that.

Don't worry.

Coffee will fix that.

Come in.

Can I have a quick word?

Yes, of course.

What's wrong?

I don't think I can do this anymore.

Oh, come on, Helen. It's not like you. Giving up at the first obstacle.

Helen. Helen!

That's right. Just leave the door open.

He'd been ill for a while, but... Once the tumour was diagnosed, it was just a

matter of weeks.

You were right.

Debbie was convinced that flying had made him ill.

Did he tell you why he thought that?

Something to do with the air on board the aircraft.

I know he told the airline and his unions, but... Did he specifically

fumes?

His uniform often used to stink of them.

He told me that if I ever smelt fumes on board, that I was to tell him. Did you?

A few times, yeah.

He tried to get me to give up flying, but we needed the money.

I just got this from David's solicitor.

On David's instructions.

Look at that. It's company policy not to inform passengers following a suspected

contaminated air event.

That's incredible.

What else is there?

They're just some technical data.

The air that I was breathing on board the JASP aircraft that I flew

was pumped full of dangerous toxins.

This is a section of the bleed air ducting system from a JASP aircraft that

flew. I won't explain how I got hold of it. Suffice to say, it wasn't without

risk.

a professor smith an expert in his field this is a page from his

toxicology report among the nasties it revealed

tricressal phosphate an organophosphate like sarin

the weapon of mass destruction tricressal phosphate is found in the

engine oils it was also found

In my blood. So I know that I was exposed. The airlines know it. I sent

toxicology report to the British government, so they know it too.

But nobody cares.

After almost seven years, as it turns out, the last seven years of my

life, I've had to accept that I'll never change anything.

It's just too big.

But my biggest regret, apart from not being able to see Izzy grow up and start

life of her own, is that I never stopped you from flying, Isabel.

And knowing that you were in danger too, my darling.

Some things in this world are more important than any cause.

Hello, it's Natasha Stevenson. May I speak to the Countess of Mar, please?

Thank you.

Hello, Lady Mar?

No, it's Dunman!

This report proves the toxins were in the engine!

And the bleed air ducting from the engine takes air to the cabin!

Prove it!

Is it true Captain David Moritz was still on the payroll?

He's dead!

When he died, he was JASP crew. Do you realize what that means?

In service deployment and... I don't mean financially.

That man was a thorn in our side for years. If there's an inquest... Why

there be? He died of natural causes.

If his family press for a hearing, JASP will be dragged into it. We have nothing

to hide.

And we have nothing to worry about.

Sorry, ladies.

I'm sorry to have to deliver an ultimatum by email, but you never pick

calls. Oh, no, sorry about that.

Joe.

This is a fantastic opportunity.

You're only on a temporary contract here.

You'll be close to sort of media city.

We can move up north. You can forget about all this stuff about fumes.

My job is safe. Your job is safe? Yes.

When I left the agency, I thought I was doing it for you, for us.

A new life together.

The Suffolk Standard job seemed just that.

A nice little local number, time to settle down.

I realised I'd been putting my career ahead of you.

Just like what you're doing to me now.

But when I could help your job prospects with a bit of investigative journalism,

that was fine.

I wasn't running after you, Joe.

I was running away from that cafe.

That gunman.

And you know what I learned?

I've learned that some things in this world are more important than any cause.

And you're not one of them.

Join me, it's over.

One more question.

So the business has really gone from small art galleries to international

businesses with collectors and interests around the world. And I suppose really,

though, the value still is in the pleasure you get from the art.

And now from Johnny's High -Flying London Art Gallery to the boss of High

-Flying Something. That's fair.

Mr. Charles Gaspar.

Hi, Gary.

Good to meet you. Good to meet you too, Johnny.

Well, to paraphrase Darwin, it isn't the strongest or the most intelligent that

thrive. It is those that respond to change. I see. So does that mean your

airline will be responding to calls for changes to the way in which air is

provided on board your aircraft?

This sheet was not really approved. Just cut it.

Cut it now or else. Cut now, commercial break.

Jasper would not command the market it does if we didn't look after our staff

exactly the same way that we... We're off air now, Mr. Jasper.

One more question. Captain Morris' claims that the fumes on board the

aircraft... Captain Morris' claims that the fumes on board the aircraft he flew

for your airline were slowly pouring... Who the hell gave you the authority to

cut me?

Don't you dare interrupt me! Listen to me now. I want to get to the bottom of

this. 8 a .m. My office tomorrow morning. We need to get to the bus. I

meet him with you lot. And some heads are going to roll.

Don't you backchat me.

Seems a bastard's in some fat -capped present -shooting syndicate with a lord

and master. Put in a call and bang, feathers flew.

Do me a favour, will you now, this bastard?

That's the plan.

Even high -flying tow rags are going to kill his heel. Where is his new CEO,

Tyrell? Because?

He's not tough. Well, he's not ruthless enough.

Made of minor business news given six months at Jasper Tops

Okay. Okay.

Okay. Bye.

I think I shall have to follow Charles' example and confiscate that phone.

Who's going to have an ice cream when we get off the train? Me.

Four ice creams.

Listen, darling, I'm going to have to leave you there.

Something at work. I'm sorry.

I wrote you a letter.

Resignation.

Did you send it?

It doesn't matter to me, you know.

All of it.

The big house.

The chauffeur.

You were with him more when he spent months on the oil fields.

Please.

Tell me what's wrong.

So how long have you guys been going out? We're not.

You'd make a perfect couple.

Shove her out.

Looks good.

Molly, I've got a present for you.

Oh, that's brilliant. Thank you so much.

Daddy, look.

I was helping to dip the sheep when my husband got quite cross with a rather

recalcitrant lamb.

When he finally caught it, he dipped it in the dip with such a splash that some

of the tidal wave went into my boot.

In the winter, we used to keep them in here, but... As you can see, it's out of

use now, a bit old and scruffy.

So, tell me, why were the sheep dipped? To prevent scab.

We were required to dip the sheep twice a year using products recommended by the

Ministry of Agriculture.

Products containing organophosphates.

Nothing on the container indicated that the contents were poisonous.

And as for the...

Health and safety recommendations.

Utterly inadequate.

As I quickly discovered... I remember.

I just had to sit on that log.

Runny nose, tight chest, headache.

I'd no idea.

I should have immediately removed the contaminated clothing and washed my

Dipper's flu, they call it.

Three weeks later, the full symptoms set in.

I thought I was dying.

Mr. Adamson.

Allow me.

Not more aviation porn?

Come on.

Flying is his life. Not just his life, either. Once an anorak, eh?

Some more onions, Pete?

Did you know Captain David Morris?

Name doesn't ring a bell.

Only his widow remembers you.

It's all on there.

There's a Professor Hart who's done some very good work into the working

environment. Now, she lectures all over the country.

There must be some kind of EU ruling or something to prevent this kind of thing.

There are lots of acts, just not enough action.

Legislators tend to focus on the aviation industry's impact on the wider

environment, not the cabin environment. But Captain Morris had proof

organophosphates... were in the bleed -air ducts, and there was no way... Even

so, there are no standards to say what is and isn't safe.

Keep going.

The media can shine a light on some pretty dark corners.

And if we do, would you be willing to ask questions at the House of Lords?

So, her latest plan is to use health and safety legislation.

Smart lady.

Why?

Well, Al Capone was eventually jailed for tax evasion, not murder.

Huh.

Oh.

On our lecture tour.

She can give you 20 minutes.

Right. Well, let's get this week started.

Not you two.

Shut the door.

I've had a phone call from the father of that young girl you did the RAF story

on.

Not a happy bunny.

I bumped into him at a feast. I said I'd back you on that story, but I... You

can't back out now.

I have calls in with Jas to interview Tyrell. You're running out of time.

We can nail this. And I'm running out of patience.

This could be the biggest story we'll ever break.

Do you really think Adamson knows something about this toxic air stuff?

I'm certain.

David Morris' funeral is in Sussex. We can legitimately cover it from a local

angle. Let's push a few buttons.

Hello?

Johnny?

One more complaint from a reader and she's back on her bits.

Helen?

Yours will be the first one.

I've called three times and... Yeah.

Yeah, I know Mr Tyrrell is a busy man, but... Okay, if you could just give him

my message, will you, please?

um

Professor Hart, Helen Eastman. How do you do?

She's a reporter, not the BMA.

I never reveal my thoughts, though.

We had a routine appendectomy today.

Well, routine until we find a way to wrap the recovery.

Nothing. For 12 minutes.

It's as if she was in a coma.

Second time it's happened.

The first was three weeks back.

Exactly the same thing happened after we pinned the fractured fibula.

Unresponsive for nearly ten minutes.

So... Check the patient's record.

That'll help her.

Where did you get this? From an airline captain's

widow.

Breathes what?

That looks serious.

flight safety issue.

I know they're JASP Air, but other than that...

They're copies of aircraft technical log pages.

Pet logs are the primary source for recording data on each flight an

makes. So an aircraft captain routinely keeps records like this?

In the aircraft, yes.

But not in his personal records.

He must have copied these.

Secretly.

See, the pilot will enter any defects here.

This airline safety report, ASR, would have been sent to the airline safety

department and then on to the CAA, the aviation regulator.

So the captain has reported his worries. But engineering has fobbed him off.

Returned the aircraft back into service.

So the airline's flying aircraft that aren't airworthy, in a regulatory

sense, yes.

Just as worrying, this shows the regulator is turning a blind eye.

So how do I prove that passengers and aircrew are being exposed to dangerous

toxins?

For he knoweth whereof we are made.

He remembereth...

that we are but dust.

The days of man are but as grass, for he flourisheth as a flower of the field,

for as soon as the wind goeth over it, it is gone, and the place thereof shall

know it no more.

But the merciful goodness of the Lord endureth for ever and ever upon them

fear him, and his righteousness upon children's children.

And unto thy hands of mercy, most merciful Father, the soul of this thou

departed, that we commit his body to the ground, earth to earth,

ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

And we beseech thine infinite goodness to give us grace, and live in thy fear

and love, and to die in thy favor.

But when the judgment shall come which thou hast committed to thy well -beloved

son, Both this, our brother, and we may be found acceptable in thy sight.

Grant this, O merciful Father, for the sake of Jesus Christ, our only Saviour,

mediator, and advocate.

Amen.

Got a flat what got a slow flat by the looks of it

Look at this. There's something on your collar here. I've never seen it before.

I don't know what it is.

Hang on, hang on. Don't touch it.

I've got to take a photograph. Hang on.

Okay, um, you just, um, look.

Okay.

Hello.

Oh, hi.

Yeah, sure.

Please, I need to get on board the aircraft that did flight 313.

No.

Think about this.

It's really important.

I need to get on board the aircraft that did flight 313.

Please.

Nothing on email, but we've been browsing our flight schedule.

Flag her name.

If she books onto any of our flights.

What's wrong with using your own car?

Is that what I think it is? Under my car.

That's interesting.

It's getting a bit Woodward and Bernstein, isn't it? I want to try again

tomorrow.

What happened?

How?

Everything?

Phones? Emails?

Yeah.

That's what Ridley found.

Look, Flight 313 was not the first time crews had been impaired.

Some were totally impacted.

There have been incidents all over the world. It's a global problem.

Yeah, the Countess of Mar is going to raise it in the House of Lords.

You have to prove that passengers are being exposed.

Yeah, OK.

Look, take care, all right?

Hang on.

Her name's on the passenger list.

Me?

She checked in on the Glasgow flight.

No checked baggage.

She's on her way to the gate now.

And she's booked on the next flight back? Yes. Boarding starts in nine

sir. I need to know when... Sir,

do we deny her boarding?

Business or pleasure?

Hopefully both.

Have a good flight, Miss Eastman.

I'm sure I will.

Hi, welcome on board. Thank you.

Road 32 on the right.

Hi, welcome on board.

On board.

Miss Eastman, I believe you left us at the gate.

Oh, thank you.

JAS 308 taxi Quebec, Juliet to Juliet 1. Hold short runway 08 right.

Please take this out and study it carefully.

There are six emergency exits on the aircraft and the cabin crew will point

these out to you now.

There are two at the rear, two overwing exits, and two at the front.

Jack, 308 clear for takeoff, 08 right.

Jack, 308 clear for takeoff.

Right, let's go.

Nothing to report.

Yeah. That's what troubles me.

Any rubbish?

Any rubbish?

Here.

I need you to do something else. Yeah, okay.

Okay, it looks like she's coming your way.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Perfect.

And the AV link.

Mr. Tyrrell, Helen Eastman, Standard.

I know your background, Mr. Tyrrell.

The Delta Bravo rig in 2005.

The world is in your hands, Jasper.

The air that I was breathing on board the Jasper aircraft that I flew was

pumped full of...

In California, it's common practice to check patients for organophosphate

exposure before... Before what, miss?

Helen Eastman.

Before an anaesthetic, Mrs Tyrrell.

Aircrew who've been exposed to toxins in flight have needed emergency treatment

to bring them round.

This has nothing to do with Tanya. She's not at risk.

She'll be in the best of health. Of course she will.

But don't the crew and passengers exposed to these chemicals deserve the

chance? Don't they?

Thank you, Mrs Eastman. I think we've heard enough.

Thank you.

She's down.

For that operation, I want Tanya to have those tests.

And if that got out?

Ian, Jasper would be crucified.

Ben, you can't just ignore this.

Not just for Tanya's sake, but for all those people who get on your planes

unaware of what's going on. What might be going on.

Might.

The man I married wouldn't take that chance.

And if I do something, I'm ruined.

There's no middle ground here.

We're off darling.

You're right

Thanks a lot.

Air cargo accounts on average for about 12 % of industry revenues.

This is just 2 % lower than business class revenues and has the potential to

impact positively on slim margins.

But we must prioritise the e -cargo environment, secure the supply chain,

dangerous goods regulations are followed.

Focus on environmental sustainability.

Finally, it's vital that we speak with a united voice on collective issues that

affect us all.

Gentlemen. Everything all right? Yeah, fine.

Mr Tyrrell.

Thank you.

Your choice.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen.

It gives me great pleasure to introduce the man who has become synonymous with

the aviation industry, one of our country's greatest entrepreneurs and

of JASP Air, Mr.

Charles Jasper.

Thank you.

Thank you, Dan. Well, thank you for inviting me to come to this conference.

As you are all aware,

It has been yet another challenging year for the aviation industry.

Combine these factors with further increases in central government

I think you will all agree.

that JASP Air's results demonstrate not only the resilience of our business

model, but also an enviable reputation within the industry and

with the travelling public.

While our competitors have struggled, JASP has enjoyed growth.

In the information packs you will be handed after this conference, you will

details of our load factors, revenue generation data.

That will form the focus of our strategic plans for the coming decade.

But before I hand over to Ben, I would be happy to take questions from the

on anything I've covered so far.

Ken Brown, Aviation News.

The punctuality statistics that you referred to, are they internal or

figures?

Those are the latest CAA figures, Ken.

Julia Stahl, Germany.

Can you please confirm last year's load factor?

64 .9%. 64 .9%, yeah? That is what I said.

Helen Eastman, Sussex Standard.

Congratulations, Mr. Jasper, on exceptional results.

Would you agree your airline's success stems mainly from the public's trust?

The airline's ability to get them safely from A to B.

Unblemished. The safety record is a reflection of our commitment to our

customers. And what would you define as safe, sir?

Flying a passenger from A to B in one piece, or flying a passenger from A to B

without harming them? The Civil Aviation Authority stated... With respect, we

all know the Civil Aviation Authority is funded by the airlines.

I'm asking you, Mr. Jasper.

I'm sure your passengers believe they are breathing clean, fresh air when they

fly, that there are no toxins on board passenger aircraft.

Right?

This is a preview of a little clip going up on YouTube later. It's me on a just

flight to Glasgow.

Now, here I am taking a standard swab sample from the cabin wall.

Now, in a moment, you'll see in this row here, it's just coming up in a moment,

there she is, seven months pregnant Mrs Sally Compton.

Mrs Compton expressed a strong desire to see the results when we got them back.

Which were negative, of course.

for anything remotely problematic.

Yes, unsurprisingly, the results that you knew about were. But wouldn't you

to know about these? Remember flight 313, taken from a JASP cockpit? We are

your debt, Miss Eastman, for providing delegates today with further proof of

JASP's diligence in ensuring our customers enjoy the safest and most

flights. Mr. Charles Jasper, ladies and gentlemen.

As our chairman has hinted at, these are indeed exciting times for JASP.

Today, I would like to outline how we propose to continue that momentum with

innovation and a commitment to the people who put us here today, our

Miss Eastman, please stay. I think you'll find what I have to say of

Forty years ago, Charles JASP founded an airline.

with ethics.

An airline with vision.

The British aviation industry has been blessed by his foresight and drive.

And today, I can tell you that JASP is at the forefront of a new era. As well

our new livery, I can confirm that 16 new routes are being introduced over the

next 12 months.

And I'm also able to tell you that our chairman's vision continues to set

standards for aviation around the world.

Miss Eastman made reference to the air we breathe in aircraft.

We understand that even in today's modern jet air travel, that many of our

customers find traveling unsettling. Scare stories appear in the press from

to time, but they sell newspapers.

However, nothing that might affect safety is ever ignored, no matter how

-fetched or unlikely.

As part of this process... The industry has carried out studies on air quality

in aircraft, and the results have confirmed, as you would expect, that the

quality is pure.

Yet still this is an issue that raises its head in the press, and causes

for some vulnerable passengers.

At Jasper, we believe that whether a problem exists, or even if there is a

perception of a problem, that we must do whatever is necessary to allay our

customers' concerns.

Our passengers, after all, are our business.

Today, I can announce a world first for aviation.

Just Air is in advanced negotiations with the leading filter manufacturer to

install air filtration across our entire fleet. This will be complete within two

years.

Not because there is a problem, but because of the public's concern of a

perceived problem.

Just Air will be the first airline to do so in the world.

Combined with our order for eight new Boeing 787s with revolutionary bleed

technology, our customers will be able to breathe easily about their

safety and comfort in the world's purest cabins.

If you want me to know.

We had to act.

The industry's battle with denial has to end.

The public can't be kept in the dark any longer. But the cost will be covered by

adding a pound to every ticket.

It won't hit our bottom line by more than .001%.

Do you remember how the crew on the Apollo 13 mission nearly died?

It was our fiscal failure.

It was an air quality problem.

Those men worked out how to filter the air.

They not only survived, they became heroes.

Next week, Sunday Express, hopefully.

You did it.

Thank you.

They did pre -fot this.

You knew they would.

Parthenogens. Toxins.

Captain of flight 313.

150 people could have been killed because of an oil leak.

And you know what the air accident investigators would have concluded?

Pilot error.

Now I get why you backed off with Jasper in there.

You'd already got to Tyrell. Mr. Ben Tyrell.

Jasper's Achilles heel. But Tyrell said that... Do you really think the industry

will let them fit filters in their aircraft, even if they wanted to?

The admission, the legal implications, it's just too big.

But we'll see.

It is almost 60 years since the danger of fumes seeping into the cabin air

was first reported.

With the notable exception of the new Boeing 787, virtually all passenger jets

still have flawed and potentially dangerous bleed air systems, a design

leaks pyrolyzed oil into the air supply.

Would the Minister agree that most shocking of all is the fact that

fail to inform passengers when they have been exposed?

Which, and I have chosen my words carefully, must be a breach of every

passenger's rights and casts a dark reflection on the aviation industry.

What solutions does the Minister have?
