    • @raidzor5452

    • @Yonex333
      @Yonex333 Před 7 lety +44

      No because it has a delay function, that stops you from constantly keeping pressing the button and activating the system.

    • @mrifixplanes1813
      @mrifixplanes1813 Před 7 lety +28

      No, the engine bleed/air conditioning system continuously feeds pressurized air into the cabin. The pressure in the cabin is controlled by the outflow valves, these are small doors on the fuselage that let air out, they are usually open to some extent in flight, if you continuously flushed the toilet then the outflow valves would move towards the closed position to maintain cabin pressure.

    • @rosen9425

    • @ningnyco1782

      Since impossible to flush all pressure out of cabin. Take note that cockpit will get MASTER WARNING when low cabin pressure, and oxygen mask will eject automatically when cabin pressure continue to decrease. AFAIK.

    Yup, I used to be that lucky guy that used to have to service those systems at DTW.
    The other GSE's (Ground Service Employees) use to jokingly refer to us as "The Turd Hurders".
    These systems especially the older gravity fed blue juice lavs were a pain in the ass to service in the middle of the winter on the older DC-10s Older 747-200 series where there rear lav service panel was way up under the tail and the DC-9/MD-80 forward lavs because the service panel was located directly below the jet bridge and sometimes I had to go get a gate agent to relocate the bridge because the bumper was right up against the panel.....
    One incident I had on 12/26/98 I was servicing the rear lavs of a Champion airlines Boeing 727 and when I opened the outer hatch, the inner flap was already opened with upwards of 20 gallons of 'you know what' pressing against the outer hatch, the ice build up wouldn't allow me to reseal the hatch and decided to take my chance to jump out of the way about 4 feet off the rear of the lav truck.
    When I hit the ramp I must have slipped because the next thing I knew I was on my ass looking at my ankle that was tacoed 90 degrees the wrong direction.
    Needles to say that put me out for the next 8 weeks and I messed the winter deicing season of '98/'99.That was the year wear passengers spent hours trapped on aircraft on taxiways.

      Well when the plane is in the air, it doesn't gain weight (maybe a little) from outside sources. They calculate the percentage of people that might come onboard already with a bellyful of shit and the weight of all the food items (food eaten -> shit), and design the waste tank accordingly, humans with the rare genetic trait of fabricating shit out of vaccum are not permitted to come onboard, obviously.....

    At my airline, the water/waste indication is located at the aft attendant panel, and the FOs have to walk all the way back there to check it pre-flight. Sometimes, we cabin crew check it for them and give them a thumbs up when we see them walking towards the back galley.

    fun fact, the system is powerful enough to suck a aircraft blanket down through the waste pipes, many times when a Ac has come in for a check at our maintenance facility, we have stripped out the waste tanks to find a blanket has blocked one of them.
    our conclusion is that passengers have gone to use the toilet during the night, , sat on the toilet while wrapped up in a warm blanket, and flushed, we have only imagined the shock the passenger would have had when their blanket disappeared.

    The waste does not just drop to the ground. That is comforting, unlike in many trains, where it just goes down to the tracks. But the sink water does fly out, so that is probably what I see when there is stuff coming out of the planes in the sky. Also, the toilet flush is so loud and powerful, it sometimes scares me. Now I know how It works and why the system is how it is.

    Some years ago, before the demise of British Caledionian Airways, who were responsible for many royal flights, there was a glass display case in their maintenance hangar at Heathrow. This contained a varnished turd alleged to be one produced by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the 2nd and bore a brass plaque identifying it as such. Mischievous ground and air crew had conspired for some time to drain the tank on any occasion when HM had visited the toilet during a flight when no other crew member or passenger had done so, thus identifying the solitary turd as a genuine royal article.

    HI Joe, does the luggage area under the plain also have equal air pressure? If I put a new bottle of coke in my checked bag, will it explode?

    • @mwbgaming28
      @mwbgaming28 Před 6 lety +1

      the cargo hold is pressurized to the same pressure as the cabin, this is to ensure that altitude sensitive bombs don't explode in flight and so animals can be transported safely in the hold, it is also to make the floor of the cabin much lighter (since it wouldn't need to be a pressure vessel then)

    • @WIRRUZZZ
      @WIRRUZZZ Před 4 lety

      Yes, pretty much the whole plane is pressurized, that is also why it is shaped like a cylinder, just like gas bottles. This is, except for a sphere, the best shape for containing pressure. In the tail it looks something like this: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Rear_pressure_bulkheads_(aircraft_fuselages)
      I wonder if a coke can might survive unpressurized anyways. It looks like they can have internal pressures of about four times atmospheric pressure (hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/SeemaMeraj.shtml). At cruise altitude, the pressure is somewhere between 1/4 and 1/5 of the pressure at ground level, so the pressure difference goes from about 4 to 4.75 to 4.8. Depending on how big the safety factor is, that might actually work.
