Audio answer: ‘Toilet water’

Here’s the text to the listening from yesterday.

Enjoy!!

A transatlantic flight was at cruise level and preparing to enter oceanic airspace when the captain was notified of water leaking from a lavatory into the passenger cabin. The captain wasn’t sure if this was a danger to the safety of the flight, so to be sure, he decided to burn off fuel and divert to his nearest alternative airport. After landing, a technician solved the problem and cleaned the area which was affected. The flight was ready for takeoff again, three hours after landing.

After talking to the company, the crew decided to return to their airport of origin to fix the problem there. The plane took off again two hours after landing.
