For weeks now, in my Cobra MkIII, I have been using what I thought was an ashtray quite happily and successfully. In fact I was impresses at its ability to consume completely all the ash and butts I could put in it. It even took a dead rat (another story).
But now, oh no, now it turns out that this magic ashtray was in fact a data port for the on-board waste collection and recycling systems, that's right, the toilet.
I am not sure if it was the ash or the rat, but recently the toilet has been randomly ejecting its contents out the receptacle at the most in-opportune times. Do you have any idea what combat for your life is like against an angry Anaconda with a brown filter over the cockpit glass? Or a sudden negative G manuver then all of a sudden the controls short out due to liquid ingestion?
The smell is something else too, my life support cant cope and my emergency supply only lasts 5 mins, but thats 5 mins of no smell, at least until that time a lump of solids got wedged between the visor and my face!
Any suggestions?
