EVERY LAV SERVICING individual I have ever come across opens a lav panel like one would open a door rigged with dynamite. Click, click, open the panel and get the hell out of dodge until you see what and how much comes out before you go hooking up the waste hose. Coloavs19. I think you been listening to some wild stories around your shop area.[/b]
At Southwest we service our own lavs, and you&#39;re absolutely right. There&#39;s no way to really "rig" the lav service port. And you&#39;re also right about the method used when opening a lav. You&#39;ll usually stand off to the side and as far away as possible reaching over. There usually always is a small amount of "leakage" that comes out when you first open it.

I do have some lav service disaster stories though from what I&#39;ve witnessed over the years.
