RON WARMINGTON SAYS THIS IS BIGGER THAN POST OFFICE SCANDAL The man who helped expose the @PostOffice scandal says he has found a cover-up that is bigger than Horizon. Nobody seems to be listening, which sounds familiar. Ron Warmington is a 75 year old fraud investigator and former Citibank director. He and his colleague Ian Henderson were hired by the Post Office to examine the Horizon computer system, then fired. Their interim report found two bugs that hit 76 branches. The @ITV drama merged the pair into one character called Bob Rutherford. Ron Warmington now says the next monstrous cover-up is the air inside passenger jets. He says pilots are being harmed, sometimes catastrophically, by toxic fumes in cabin air, and that the airline industry and regulators keep denying it. His words for it are global, real, and bigger than Horizon. He expects this to burst into public awareness with explosive force. He suspects a major crash will happen at some point, with a comatose pilot and co-pilot letting go of the controls on descent. He says there have already been near misses. This is a man who spent his career toning things down and never crying wolf. On this one he calls the situation outrageous. He came to it through Ian Warren, a subpostmaster wrongly accused of stealing £18,000. Ian Warren met Captain John Hoyte @JohnHoytePilot by chance at an event in Norfolk. Ron Warmington has advised John Hoyte’s group, the Aerotoxic Association @AerotoxicAssoc, ever since. He says the members are trying to get attention and nobody is paying any. His Horizon comparison is about risk. The Post Office made the risk decisions and pushed the burden onto postmasters. In aviation he says the burden falls on crew, passengers and the people the planes could land on. He believes airlines have stretched out engine maintenance, so oil leaks get worse, and that boards hope the problem goes away because fixing it threatens their jobs. That is his view of the story. The record backs the concern. Over 20 years, more than 50 recommendations and findings from 12 air accident bodies worldwide have related to contaminated air. The UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch has twice asked for contaminated air warning systems on large passenger aircraft. Manufacturers and regulators dismissed it. No aircraft flying today has a detection system. The Civil Aviation Authority says there is no positive evidence of a link to long-term health effects. The Post Office denied it for years. Ron Warmington has heard this script before. Helen McArdle reported his comments in The Herald @heraldtweets in September 2024. If you are a journalist, this is your story. If you fly, please share this so more people know. I put the link to John Hoyte’s full story in the comments.
