Frozen human waste from jet crashes onto car Driver upset because no-one wants to pay for damage, glob removal
The Associated Press Updated: 9:27 a.m. ET Feb. 1, 2005LEOMINSTER, Mass. -
It came from the friendly skies, and caused quite a bit of damage.
Frozen waste from a jet’s toilet smashed onto a woman’s car last week, crushing part of the roof and shattering the windshield.
A Massachusetts woman says no one is willing to help her pay for the repairs, or take responsibility.
Nina Gambone says federal aviation officials determined the chunk of frozen debris came from a jet’s lavatory. But, a spokesman says they can’t do anything unless it can identify the airline responsible.
Gambone says she called her fire department in Leominster, which says they can’t remove the glob because it is classified as hazardous waste.
The only good news is the woman and her 13-year-old son had just left the car before it was hit.

An old running cadence from my early days in the Corps...
Birdie Birdie in the sky
dropped a little whitewash
in my eye
I'm no liberal I won't cry
but boy am I glad
that cows don't fly.

Of course it didn't happen to me.

There is a slight matter of determining which airline's jet took a dump on her car.

Well, hopefully this person is a Democrat, because then she will understand how Americans feel about Massachusetts foisting off the likes of John Kerry and Ted Kennedy on us.

Seriously, though ... the anti-gun crowd used to have this bug up their collective #$%% about putting "taggants" in gunpowder ... here's a situation where that sort of thing might actually be useful.

And needs to. But what is the liklihood that this is from an airline as opposed to a private check. frozen waste could kill somebody. I would think the airlines would have regulations against dumping over populated areas.
.........................................
I assume you mean Private JET....doesn't matter.
ATC will have it all on tape/transcripts.
Also Airlines don't DUMP waste it's sucked into a truck at the gate called a "Honey Wagon"
What happens is.. the valve at the bottom of the aircraft leaks or vibrates open, the fluids/solids freeze in the cold upper atmosphere, when the aircraft decends to lower altitudes and warmer air the "Glob" falls off,.....happens more than you think
