I once had a flight delayed cause a person on the last flight had explosive diarrhea and couldn't aim. Lucky me ended up getting the seat right next to the bathroom. It smelled so bad and took them forever to clean it up😭😭
The International Space Station is even more marvelous in that aspect. I am proud if we can overcome our differences and unify forces to create things like that.
Same.I'm eating my dinner and heard him saying ****.But it doesn't really affect **me.So** if someone says **** 1000 times while i'm eating,i don't care,but i'll laugh lol.
I had a tour once of a retired Qantas 747. During the tour they pointed out the drain hole which had horrible brown stains around it from the coffee etc which had been poured out
@@diddyholz3290 I think we should all now demand that even that water doesn't get dumped on us anymore..... I don't like the idea of someone's diarrhea or piss landing on me and me thinking its rain....
Ironically, this was one of the most technical videos I've seen from Joe. I had to rewind several times to fully understand all the systems and procedures involved for the septic system of all things! I also snickered at the poo graphics and the yellow fluid level in the tank.
When I was young (a long time ago), we were traveling by train, and when you opened the toilet you could see the track ties going past. Glad to hear they just don't drop it out of the plane.
I have used those disgusting air plane bathrooms before. And there was a turbulence earlier that day in the airplane so as soon as you saw me come out that bathroom i was pale!!!! For like 10 seconds
Am I the only person who noticed 2 years after this video was uploaded that just before the start intro there's a half-full bottle of orange juice that flashes for like 0.1 seconds. Go to 0:13, put it in 0.25 playback and hold the space bar, you'll see it, It says B747 on it
It’s crazy how much attention to detail goes into something we take for granted. I remember the first time I used the bathroom on the plane I was about to wash my hands when I thought “wait a minute, where does that water come from?” Now I finally know. Thank you.
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.
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.
At *Ryanair* they are already debating the possibility of providing *diapers and baby wipes* for the passengers in order to eliminate this whole water/waste system which is both expensive and heavy.
I can't help but imagine some engineer snickering behind his computer when coming up with 'FAP' for the panel relating to things going on in the smallest room ;)
Actually the FAP is the Panel which controls pretty much everything in the cabin, like lights, temperature, music etc, it shows you if anything malfunctioned in the cabin, and much more. But yea, we were making fun of that name during the training quite a lot 😂
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.
So when someone wearing a tin foil hat says "Hey look, those aren't contrails. thems chemtrails, they stop and start in mid flight, I seen it!" It's really just Gertrude thoroughly washing her hands at 35K? Nice..
Krux 172 No, the Airport police has the honour of doing it. The police only "helps" you off the plane, if you refuse to go by yourself. The airline only advises the police to remove a passenger, if they refuse to cooperate with their rules.
Many airlines lock the toilets for the whole climbing and descent phases to avoid annoyances. As a consequence of that sometimes someone piss near the window, silently and gently.
like the libtards who prevent us from competing at a NASA launch competition at a state (Alabama) that doesn't support LGBT, or when they recruit women engineers for the sake of having female engineers on the team, not because they are actually good engineers...
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. Thank you for the interesting videos as always!
I never realized that even designing sanitation on board was so complicated. But that soapy water is going overboard is a revelation. I suppose all water and soapy stuff evaporates before it reaches the ground.
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.....
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.
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.
You always make amazing videos...!.👌👌i want to be like u! I have a question....how to choose a flying school ? Also where and how one can gain experience after CPL?
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)
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.
Hey captain joe, Can you make a video about your career as a pilot, your flight school, your liscens, the university you studied in ect. It would be nice for people like me who are at their last year of school and still don't know a lot of how to become an airline pilot.
Jeef Jeff I just saw the language for the country being departed spoken and then english spoken. When I was departing france and heading back to the US, they spoke french and english when talking to the passengers.
During the early years particularly the USAF pilots had a relief tube that would carry liquid waste to a Venturi located under the aircraft. The liquid waste within the aircraft in the form of a mist.
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.
@Captain Joe Can you do a video on the 400Hz electric systems it has so much great advantages over 50/60Hz most people are not aware of.And a few minor disadvantages.I can imagine it will become obsolete because these days DC motors and converters are really cheap and low in weight.
A quick search tells me 400 Hz systems are lighter/smaller but less efficient. It's a good tradeoff for an aircraft where every kg matters but a poor tradeoff for a machine installed in a factory on the ground.
If you had taken the time to really read my comment I'm asking if it becomes obsolete to be replaced with DC.There is also another advantage,synchronous motors rotate much faster at 400Hz.
So i went on a plane for my first time and i needed to use the restroom and i was like “Fuccckkk”, so i had to stand up and go until....,, When i flushed the damn toilet, it made a huge *WHOOOOOOSH* sound and i got scared, my eyes went wide open
If you have an iPhone (or another phone with a barometric pressure sensor), you can install/run a measuring app (like phyphox), and see the pressure change inside the cabin, when someone else flushes.
A member of ground staff in Dublin mistakenly hit the "blow" instead of "suck" when the waste truck was hooked up to an Aer Lingus There was a Stewardess in the toilet . Her uniform switched from Green to Blue instantly
depends on the Aircraft type. take a 747 as an example. there is a separate toilet for the pilots just behind the flight deck door, opposite the pilots bunks.
On a Lufthansa flight a while ago, they had the toilets in the belly of the plane, and a contingent of passengers who, apparently, were not prepared to fly and didn't know how to use toilets. It was disgusting, and the crew had no plan to deal with it. The toilets were overflowing, actual sh-- on the lower deck, by the time we were skirting Greenland. It was basically a transatlantic flight that smelled like Sh__ all the way from Montreal to Frankfort. There has to be a better way to inform passengers who may not be familiar with plumbing, let alone contagion, on how to these systems effect everyone on the plane.
@@LGKvideos not in every case... pilots certified on the A320 can fly A318s, A319s, A320s, and A321s. Also pilots certified on the 757 can fly 767s as well.
Thanks for the A320 toilet drop and potable water panel footage. As part of my day-job I do the potable water and toilet drops, but on 737s and 787s. From Friday this week we will be getting A320s and 321s. It's interesting to see the difference. It's been over 2 years since the last time I worked on Airbus.
DarkSlayer 1411 that would just be pointless and break things in reality i suspect a flight attendant is called in to keep watch and the pilot then goes to the toilet i heard some planes have a small toilet room built into the cockpit to eliminate the need for pilots to leave the cockpit at all, though i have never seen such a room
Yes the waste does go overboard. There’s a mixer in the belly of the plane, it grinds up the poop with water and sprays it out to the sky. Free fertilizer. Lol. J/k
Yeah man sure pay thousands for medschool, make career, become a professional then leave at 50 start flight school and pay 50.000€ + and then start flying at 60. Yeah sure but what a shitlife
RIP waste tank. It has to deal with so much shit and is always under pressure. :/
You're a genius!😂😂😂

Underrated comment😭😭
The scariest thing about flying is flushing the damn toilet
First is the delay after you press the button, then the WOOOOSHHHHH!
iCapybara the delay is so you can run out before it flushes lol
I love the delay tho cos it gives me time to turn my back 😂

u could probably have demanded a different seat if that was availible and away from the toilet

LOL, im going to try that!
You guys are just big kids, that’s disgusting
it is fascinating that there are so many systems that are present for the upkeep of the people aboard the plane

I am not a pilot, but am an mechanical engineer and it is neat to know the fuctions of an aircraft through you.
When I was young (a long time ago), we were traveling by train, and when you opened the toilet you could see the track ties going past. Glad to hear they just don't drop it out of the plane.
Glad it's not the case in the trains anymore. 'Cos for that reason the train toilets were closed while approaching/staying in/leaving cities.
The flushing sound is so loud it makes me uncomfortable
Don't flush that plane toilet while seated. It might pull out your intestines if you are fat and your ass covers the whole bowl
I have used those disgusting air plane bathrooms before. And there was a turbulence earlier that day in the airplane so as soon as you saw me come out that bathroom i was pale!!!! For like 10 seconds

I remember the first time I used the bathroom on the plane I was about to wash my hands when I thought “wait a minute, where does that water come from?” Now I finally know. Thank you.
The scariest thing on a plane is when the seatbelt sign comes on when your in the toilet 😬
Can you depressurize a plane by holding the flush button for a while? 😂
No because engines are constanyly pressurizing and have plenty power to keep plane pressurized even when flushing.
No because it has a delay function, that stops you from constantly keeping pressing the button and activating the system.
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.
That would be a stupid function. And one super fired engineering team 🤣
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.
this is honestly so interesting to know. enjoy your videos as always, capt joe!
Now I have knowledge I never looked for, courtesy of TH-cam. 👌
The more i learn about the plane systems the more it amazes me and blows my mind what an engineering wonder the airplane is.

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?
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)
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.
So if someone is in the toilet and the plane suddenly loses altitude, will the pressure difference blow the tank contents all over the person?
If the plane suddenly lost altitude I think human waste is the least of the persons worries
I find it incredible that a pilot knows so much about the toilet system on a plane.
Pilots must know their shit.

A quick search tells me 400 Hz systems are lighter/smaller but less efficient. It's a good tradeoff for an aircraft where every kg matters but a poor tradeoff for a machine installed in a factory on the ground.
If you had taken the time to really read my comment I'm asking if it becomes obsolete to be replaced with DC.There is also another advantage,synchronous motors rotate much faster at 400Hz.
So i went on a plane for my first time and i needed to use the restroom and i was like “Fuccckkk”, so i had to stand up and go until....,,
When i flushed the damn toilet, it made a huge *WHOOOOOOSH* sound and i got scared, my eyes went wide open
I went on plane today and was thinking about this 😂😂😂
If you have an iPhone (or another phone with a barometric pressure sensor), you can install/run a measuring app (like phyphox), and see the pressure change inside the cabin, when someone else flushes.
A member of ground staff in Dublin mistakenly hit the "blow" instead of "suck" when the waste truck was hooked up to an Aer Lingus
There was a Stewardess in the toilet . Her uniform switched from Green to Blue instantly
... By putting me on a no-fly list
lol I love it.
Hamstertractor xD
Joe do pilots and passengers have different toilet
depends on the Aircraft type. take a 747 as an example. there is a separate toilet for the pilots just behind the flight deck door, opposite the pilots bunks.
what's the funniest thing you have heard over the radio??
Bond James Bond classic
i bet "Francoooooooooooooo" on 121.5
I once hearded a joking
What's you vector Victor?
nothing radio is outdated lol
Forget pilots, your helping us AMT students none the less!
Please make more system videos💪
On a Lufthansa flight a while ago, they had the toilets in the belly of the plane, and a contingent of passengers who, apparently, were not prepared to fly and didn't know how to use toilets. It was disgusting, and the crew had no plan to deal with it. The toilets were overflowing, actual sh-- on the lower deck, by the time we were skirting Greenland. It was basically a transatlantic flight that smelled like Sh__ all the way from Montreal to Frankfort. There has to be a better way to inform passengers who may not be familiar with plumbing, let alone contagion, on how to these systems effect everyone on the plane.
But imagine doing big diarrhoea in the toilet and clogging up the toilet 😂
why it is in my recommendation
Joe could you please explain if a pilot can be a pilot in two types of aircraft like a320 and also 787
Thanks
Yes, you can pilot different types of airplanes, only you need to get trained for each of them and receive certification for each airplane type.
@@LGKvideos not in every case... pilots certified on the A320 can fly A318s, A319s, A320s, and A321s. Also pilots certified on the 757 can fly 767s as well.
There should also be a floor drain with the same suction system for missed shoot pee and lavatory floor spillage.
The Forward Attendant Panel is called the FAP. fits in for a vídeo about toilets.
Yes sir I will take off from TH-cam, fly over to your Instagram and complete touchdown on runway 27L follow button.
So what you're saying is I could piss in the sink and have it go overboard
Yes lol
Captain what is going to happen to Air Berlin and is it going to affect you are still going to be a pilot
Thanks for the A320 toilet drop and potable water panel footage. As part of my day-job I do the potable water and toilet drops, but on 737s and 787s. From Friday this week we will be getting A320s and 321s. It's interesting to see the difference. It's been over 2 years since the last time I worked on Airbus.
When they “dump the blue juice”, that’s always fun.
wüst du deinen Job bei Air Berlin (oder dann German Wings) behalten können oder musst du dir was neues suchen
AviationMan98 Aviation District ziemlich sicher.
AviationMan98 Aviation *bankrott
Now when i use the restroom again i will be thinking about all this stuff
captain joe, what do you do if YOU need the toilet when you’re the pilot?
holly a flight attendant enters the cockpit, and then the pilot can take a short toilet break.
A2DJP ok thanks
they shit on the flight computers
DarkSlayer 1411 that would just be pointless and break things
in reality i suspect a flight attendant is called in to keep watch and the pilot then goes to the toilet
i heard some planes have a small toilet room built into the cockpit to eliminate the need for pilots to leave the cockpit at all, though i have never seen such a room
@@mwbgaming28 r/woosh
Yes the waste does go overboard. There’s a mixer in the belly of the plane, it grinds up the poop with water and sprays it out to the sky. Free fertilizer.
Lol. J/k
I prefer back when the toilets used the blue liquid to flush waste instead of the vacuum sucking apparatus, seems more sanitary.
So planes do pee and fart too
very silly, stop it
Is it possible that I become a pilot after becoming a doctor??
Anonymous yes. But are sure you wanna be a doctor and a pilot because doctor is more harder to achieved.
Yeah man sure pay thousands for medschool, make career, become a professional then leave at 50 start flight school and pay 50.000€ + and then start flying at 60. Yeah sure but what a shitlife
Don’t listen to the morons who reply you earlier. Yes you can. Have flying doctors in many countries who both fly and treat people.
Yes, then you will be a ' doctor of flies '........
Anonymous after becoming a doctor , remember this , you are already the pilot of your own life.
Marines in a row boat* “row row row your boat sneak up in the stream. Lock n’ load in tactic mode United States marines.
Haha lol when I was 6 I used to think all the sh*t was dumped out the plane mid flight
I have watched several other videos to learn about this fast suction finally I got the knowledge from this video. Thank you.
This is one of the plane shitty situations.
Doesn't sound like it's a very big tank. Would have expected twice that for an airbus
He did refer to a 320, that's only 180 passengers, maximum
Oops. Once i threw up in the sink... 😱
LOL im so sorry but that seriously made me laugh...
So *hypothetically* if you piss in the sink on an airplane, you make piss clouds that will rain down on people??
This guy is so good at explaining things.
