I betcha the good folks at Labatts are not at all pleased about this....

I really doubt this story.
Given the amount of TLC that the two Presidential VC-25’s get from their maintenance crews, I don’t think anything like this could happen even if Obama himself ordered it. Their systems are monitored and kept at such a high standard, far higher than other military or civilian aircraft, that something like this is difficult to believe.

Precisely my reaction. Send out the AF1 experts to test the ground where the attention-whore say it melted, and put them in prison for false reporting of an aviation hazard.

....the dump valve is slowly leaking and it makes an iceberg on the outside. Hmmmm. I wonder if anyone has called the EPA?
They'd do it for you.

Don’t they clean the lavatories whenever he stops? There was a 50 pound dump on board? Moochie must have had a very hardy breakfast.

My point was, this stuff doesnt just fall off an airplane. It has to be dumped deliberatly. The article makes it sound like an accident or freak mishap.
As far as I recall, there's no mechanism provided for an aircraft to dump its holding tanks in-flight. A leak can cause the liquid to freeze onto the outside of the plane at high altitude. The resulting ice sticks to the plane as long as it remains frozen. When the plane descends for landing, the ice can warm up, soften/melt, and fall off.
That's what apparently happened here. While it's an unusual occurrence, it does happen.

There is a verb conjugatiion rule in there somewhere.....
a la
to, is (needs ‘ing’), will, did ‘i’
‘a’
was (needs ‘ing’ again), has, will have, would have/could have/should have...’a’
__ (??)’en’ Perhaps shot. Or, perhaps another word entirely, like ‘went/gone’ ‘Gone’ would be good.
