Default Airplane Dumped Poop On Girl's Birthday Party, Family Claims

This gives new meaning to the term "party pooper."

A Levittown, Pennsylvania family says their daughter's Sweet 16
birthday party was ruined when a passing airplane dropped human
waste on the celebration Sunday evening.

Joe Cambray, the birthday girl's stepfather, said he was playing
some horseshoes in the backyard when out of nowhere, something
nasty rained down on the gathering, according to Fox 29
Philadelphia. Thankfully, a canopy erected for the party
shielded most of the guests.

"Out of nowhere from the sky comes a bunch of feces, lands hard
on the canopy," Cambray told the station.

"We'd just gotten done with the cake, thank God," Cambray's
sister, Kristie Rogy, said. "Because within two minutes
something fell from the sky. It was brown. It was everywhere. It
got on everything... It was gross!"

Fox 29's Brad Sattin shared this photo of the aftermath:

The family has filed a complaint with the Federal Aviation
Administration after Rogy used a smartphone app to figure out
there were five planes overhead at the time of the incident, she
said. The FAA told the TV station it will investigate the
incident.

Believe it or not, airborne waste problems are reported with
some frequency.

In 2012, a New York couple said they were splattered with
airborne waste from an airplane as it flew overhead.

In 2013, a woman in England reported that a frozen chunk of
waste had crashed through her roof.

Last year, a New Zealand woman whose home was pelted with what
she says was human waste from an airplane was furious when the
country's Civil Aviation Administration tried to blame the mess
on ducks.

"I fought it hard. We got tests done that proved it was human
matter and even at that point the CAA still kicked their heels
in, they wouldn't have a bar of it," the dumping victim, who did
not want to be named, told The New Zealand Herald.

The FAA's term for frozen airplane waste is "blue ice," after
the chemical that's added to toilet water to help deodorize and
break down waste. Usually, ground crews dispose of the waste
once the plane has landed. The agency acknowledges that lavatory
leaks can occur in the air, but says the usual culprits behind
fly-by poopings are flocks of migratory birds.

"It looked like a hundred birds flew over and went to the
bathroom simultaneously," Cambray told Fox Philadelphia.
