Los Angeles teachers sue Delta after jet fuel dump over schools, playgrounds.
Allred said that if the pilot had properly alerted air traffic personnel on the ground, the flight would have been directed to a safe location and altitude from which it could dump fuel without posing a risk to the general public.One of the teachers in the suit said her fifth-grade students initially thought the jet fuel was rain. The children looked up"only to have noxious liquid then overwhelm [their] eyes, mouths, noses, lungs and skin," the teacher said in a statement.
Another teacher said she worried the fuel smell might have been the result of a terrorist attack. Her kids cried. The next day, the teacher, a 21-year veteran of Park Avenue Elementary, went to urgent care worried after her pain and nausea did not subside. According to the federal Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, jet fuel exposure can cause liver damage, decreased immune response and impaired neurological functions and hearing.
