Did anyone else see the news report on KSDK, channel 5 news of St. Louis, about the air liner that the maintenance people found it infested with mice? It was a Boeing 767, and they found live mice, droppings all over and even dead mice. They found wires chewed through, nests in the air vent systems and also in some of the emergency air maskes (the ones that drop down for passengers to use in an emergency) they found dead ones. They reported it to the company and also the FAA, but the plane was allowed to continue to fly. Reports of mice were turned in about that plane by other crew members at other times after that, on the routes it was flowen, but it took like several trips and reports before anything was done. The FAA said they did nothing about it cause there are no rules or regulations about mice on planes. If it was that bad on just one plane, how many others are that bad and people are flying in those conditions? Why won't they do something about it? Anyone have any ideas?
