Forensic tests on BA 767s, Cyprus flights affected

30/11/2006

British Airways has been advised that three of its Boeing 767 short haul aircraft have been identified by the UK government as part of the investigation into the death of Alexander Litvinenko, a report posted on ba.com said Thursday.

One of the affected aircraft operated the London Heathrow return flight to Larnaca (BA662 and BA 663) on October 29, as well as November 11, 12, 13, 18 and 26.
The airline was contacted Tuesday night by the UK government and has taken the three B767s out of service to enable forensic examination to be carried out.

The initial results of the forensic tests, which were confirmed late Wednesday afternoon, have shown very low traces of a radioactive substance onboard two of the three aircraft.

British Airways has been advised that this investigation is confined solely to these three B767 aircraft, which will remain out of service until further notice, the announcement said.

British Airways understands from advice it has been given that the risk to public health is low.

The airline is in the process of making contact with customers who have travelled on flights operated by these aircraft, which operate within Europe.

UK nationals on these flights who wish to receive further advice are advised to telephone NHS Direct on 0845 46 47 from within the UK or + 44 845 4647 from outside the UK (from a mobile telephone only).

For all non-UK nationals, the airline advises to contact a local doctor.

Only customers who have travelled on these specific flights are asked to telephone NHS Direct or seek medical advice locally.

British Airways has set up a special helpline for customers in the UK on 0845 6040171 or + 44 191 211 3690 for international calls.

Information is also available from the NHS Direct website at www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk and the Health Protection Agency Information www.hpa.org.uk.

Announcements will also be posted on ba.com .

The worst that could happen... or for the best in some way that u may grow a second Penis.
U dont even have to worry about those levels at all.

and now serious...
... i was 6 when Chernobyl disaster hapened, i lived 200km from that place. Our region was affected the most by a massive fallout, even now 20 years later in central square they have a huge digital clock showing radiation levels.
I remeber we used to get some social benefits such as free summer holidays paid by the government etc...
That was till the USSR collapsed.

Touch wood, i am fine... except for my sizes. eg: shoes 47 I Have to shop from Germany all the time...

The following things may do more harm than u think (Radioactive)

1: Manual Arc welding rod (Thorium)

2: High brightness neon bulbs (Kr-85)

3: High voltage high meg ceramic coated carbon resistors - frequently seen
at surplus shops. (Thorium/Uranium)

Sure there are more...

4. Smoke Detectors

5. Spark Plugs

6. Phosphore

7. Tritium Glow Lights (Aya Napa here we come) <-- infact banned in many countries, its the most radioactive product that u can buy.

there are more, u can research yourself

Some people with cancer can be cured following a radiation therapy:

A realative of mine had a radioactive iodine therapy as a result of the thyroid cancer that she had. The doctor said after that therapy she will be 100% cured .

She is in a clinic now and she will come out on Monday.she received a capsule containing radioactive iodine and she will be locked in the clinic for 2 days. After 3 weeks only traces of radiation will remain in her body.
