I'm just some guy scratching his head trying to figure this out. Because I never heard of planes dumping fuel before.
But at least 1 site (areospaceweb.org) says ;
"15 million pounds of fuel was released over the world's oceans by commercial and military aircraft during the 1990s. Although kerosene poses no danger to the ozone layer, it is a petroleum product that can impact water quality much like an oil or gasoline spill."
Now that's just the 1990s and the fuel dumped over the oceans. But in an emergency they do whatever they need to do and I'm wondering how much has been dumped over cities, farmland, etc.
Perhaps some of the reasons why some people come up with crazy theories is because there's a lot of stuff we're not being told about. The least of which is how the hell do these people keep this sort of shit quiet and more importantly how do they get away with it?
