He's been way dialed back lately. You're safe to remove him from the list.

Also, any company or union "forms" are not sufficient as these too can be made to disappear since they are not an official government report.
I believe that this should be / maybe a function of Pro Standards. I’m not sure but if an FO and a Captain couldn’t agree on a write up such as this pro stands would be my first stop..

The finish line should be near. This past fall, in Europe, during the Cabin Air Conference PALL Filters gave a nice presentation on their system.

He joked at the beginning saying he definitely won’t be saying when it will come out, but that it’s close. I guess a few years ago, he said product should be on the market in 2018. Obviously that didn’t come to be, unfortunately.

They have now finally taken the system from the lab and tested it on a real world 321. Ironically the 321, shown in the presentation, they used was an American Airlines 321.

I can’t imagine AA allowing a company to use one of their planes, for a test, if they somehow aren’t going to be a customer of it. Good news if that’s the case. If someone as large as AA is onboard, there should be zero issues getting everyone onboard.

Anyhow, all of the data they collected in the lab, worked just as described in the real airplane.

I’ll try and find the link to the presentation later.

For anyone who wants to establish their baseline levels, this website worked pretty well for me. I ordered and paid for the tests online and went to a local Quest lab to get the blood drawn.
