Re:Airplane air quality (was 'Spraying in airplanes etc')

[Anthony Nelson-Smith]

My Sunday newspaper (The Observer, UK) has a short piece "We're heaving on a
jet plane..." by Euan Ferguson) which claims that the member of a ground
crew whose responsibility it is to help open the door on the arrival of an
intercontinental flight gets a little extra pay for having to put up with
the waft of foetid air which then hits him.  Apparently this duty, at a
Pacific destination, is carried out by Tommo Tikkulumu, which translates
roughly as 'Tommy who relishes the smell of farts'.
