This issue was discussed extensively very recently - Just when I thought it couldn't get worse

But are we not being hypocritical here? Is there anybody that is seriously saying he does not fart on an airplane?

Agree there are good fart days, bad fart days and then real bad days (as you experienced) but I bet you he was not alone and some passengers in the vicinity (maybe even you) took opportunity of the cover of the intense foul smell to release some of their own! By the way have you ever sat next to a passenger who has a bad body smell (which unlike a fart is all the time) - what did you say then?
