CRJ Sinus Problems?

[Stifler's Mom]

STOP STOP STOP. I'm going to have trouble leaving the house tomorrow as it is.

just wait til you find the boogers and dingleberrys under the seats and smeared on the yoke/throttle.

Used to have that problem on the Dorniers, but not so much on the CRJ now. Ever since the J4J guys got here, it seems to have cleared itself up.

I've never found myself getting allergy-type reactions while flying. But, my skin gets terribly dried out (particularly in winter), and I've found that at the end of a four-day trip, I've broken out pretty bad.

As one who needs a shower to get going in the morning, I've also started taking one right when arriving at the hotel to get rid of the "airplane funk." Yuck.

Nope....................dry skin, though. Sinuses are actually better now than before. Go figure. May have more to do with the fact that we moved shortly after transition to the RJ than anything. Out of an environment that didn't appeal to me to one that does (from an allergy standpoint).

There are filters on the left side (inside left wall behind CA's seat). They can be cleaned and makes a world of difference. I was at aca/indy and saw it several times.The mechs told us about it, and said it wasnt a mx feature so it didnt get done when needed, only when they had to remove for other fixes. Hope this helps. Also helps greatly with flow in cockpit from pack.

Watch your cornhole bud!

As far as allergies go...YES...but on the ERJ not the C.

Any flight longer than 2.5 hours gets the respiratory crap kickin' too (coughing etc.)

Not to mention anytime the O2 mask needs to be donned even after it's been sani-comm'd to all get out.

Has anyone developed sinus problems since starting to fly the CRJ? I've never had allergies until now, and they get worse when I'm on a heavy schedule.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, I think I should probably stop farting when I'm sitting in the back.

I have some sinus problems sometimes without even flying!! It has never gotten worse though while flying (unpressuriezed or not). Has anyones sinus probs gotten worse after flying the CRJ? I use saline spray every once in a while to help with the dryness but thats it. Im just about to start IOE in the CRJ so Im VERY curious about this. Thanks!! anyone....anyone.......Bueller?......Bueller?.....
