Welcome Aboard Toxic Airlines is a 2007 British documentary film directed and produced by former airline captain Tristan Loraine on aerotoxic syndrome.

Synopsis

This documentary shows that for nearly fifty years, airline passengers and crews have been supplied with unfiltered air, called bleed air, taken directly from the engines. It shows how pressure groups have shown that this air supply sometimes becomes contaminated with neurotoxins, carcinogens and other hazardous chemicals. In aviation industry-speak this contamination is called a "fume event". Many have been reported some filling the passenger cabin with smoke and fumes.

The documentary is divided into two main segments. The first section of the film is a dramatization of a sneak attack by Soviet Union nuclear weapons against the United States. The premise of the attack is based on Soviet nuclear submarines approaching the United States west coast undetected and launching a barrage of missiles at ICBM silos and B-52 bomber bases, while other Soviet forces manage to destroy a number of U.S. ballistic missile submarines at sea. In the film, by the time Strategic Air Command realizes what is happening, over 80% of U.S. strategic forces have been destroyed and the President of the United States is forced to surrender to the Soviet Union. American casualties are stated to be eight million dead - this "low" number is due to the Soviet attack hitting military bases instead of cities.

À 8h15 précises ce 6 août 1945, le monde a changé. 40.000 personnes trouvent instantanément la mort, mais ce sont bien 200.000 décès qui seront provoqués par l´explosion de la première bombe nucléaire sur Hiroshima, au Japon. Ce documentaire exceptionnel de 90 minutes n´est pas « Un énième film anti-guerre » déclare son réalisateur Paul Wilmshurst, « mais bien l´analyse neutre et objective d´une décision cruciale. Il ne s´agit pas d´être pro-américain ou pro-japonais, j´ai simplement voulu raconter la vérité. » Une vérité technologique, scientifique, militaire et politique qui se dessine dans les trois semaines précédant l´attaque, alors que le premier essai nucléaire vient de se dérouler dans le désert du Nouveau-Mexique, aux États-Unis. Le spectateur se retrouve alors dans la pièce où est prise la décision ultime, à bord de l´Enola Gay pendant son trajet fatidique, à l´intérieur de la bombe au moment de l´explosion, puis dans les rues dévastées d´Hiroshima.
