Flew Thru Washington State the Week After Fukushima? YOU GOT A RADIOACTIVE LUNG FULL!!

A new study was released which shows that

The amount of radiation released during the Fukushima nuclear disaster was so great that the level of atmospheric radioactive aerosols in Washington state was 10,000 to 100,000 times greater than normal levels in the week following the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that triggered the disaster.

They should have added this to the study: if you flew through that radioactive aerosol in a JET Aircraft you potentially inhaled and ingested an even greater concentration  of "radioactive aerosols".

Most jet aircraft get cabin air from cold engine bleed air, that means those engines are acting like giant centrifuges sucking in and concentrating that radioactivity. Combine that concentration effect with the high amount of cabin air recirculation, and the levels of cabin air radioactive fallout shoot up even higher.
