Aircraft Microbiome Much Like That of Homes and Offices, Study Finds

A new study by researchers from Georgia Tech and Emory University has found that the bacterial communities accompanying airline passengers at 30,000 feet have much in common with the bacterial communities surrounding people in their homes and offices. The study is believed to be the first to study this microbiome of aircraft.

What does flying in a commercial airliner have in common with working at the office or relaxing at home? 

According to a new study, the answer is the microbiome – the community of bacteria found in homes, offices and aircraft cabins. Believed to be the first to comprehensively assess the microbiome of aircraft, the study found that the bacterial communities accompanying airline passengers at 30,000 feet have much in common with the bacterial communities surrounding people in their homes and offices.

Using advanced sequencing technology, researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University studied the bacteria found on three components of an airliner cabin that are

MOSES LAKE — As Boeing considers a replacement for the out-of-production 757 jetliner, the Port of Moses Lake is considering a bid to be the place where Boeing builds its new jet, the New Midsize Airplane (NMA).

According to Port Executive Director Jeffrey Bishop, the port has the ability to create a complete proposal in-house to build the aircraft here. The Port has long contemplated a facility to build small or medium-sized passenger jets.

“No one is certain what Boeing will be looking for in the NMA,” Bishop told port commissioners Monday morning.

Bishop said competing to get that contract would be something of a long shot.

“It’s always difficult to compete with fully depreciated assets,” Bishop said.

However, Boeing already tests and certifies aircraft at the Grant County International Airport, and there is plenty of space to build a new facility.

“Boeing knows where we are,” Bishop said.

While Boeing ceased making the mid-sized 757 in 2004 in Renton, the company concluded in 2015 that there is a significant market for planes capable of carrying 225-275 passengers 6,500-7,500 miles.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee last week released a report making the state’s case for the new plane, unofficially dubbed the 797.

“From the 737 to the 787 Dreamliner, we are proud that Boeing’s roots are in Washington,” Inslee said. “We believe we have all the ingredients necessary to bring the NMA to market quickly and profitably, thanks to our expert workforce and our century-long legacy of building aircraft of exceptional quality.”
