#1 OK I'm not a lady. I just had to relay the mushroom induced fear as a 17 year old rookie - Upon visiting 'The Trench' I was struck by the sight of a bloated carcass of a labrador dog floating on its back in a sea of shit. Truly horrendous.

#2 Well the baggie thing would be handy... as for the funnel thingy, I was once on a trans-Pacific flight on a P-3 Orion, and they told me if I used anything except the flight urinal, I would have to clean it, so I used a tall paper cup, and just emptied it in. These look like equally creative solutions.

#3 Still have to find a private place to use one of these. Or at least I would; maybe if the "ladies" at the show get crocked enough, they wouldn't. (Yecch)

#5 Sgt Mom -

Try the head on a C-141...at night...in rough weather. It's under the flight deck, and one wall is the side of the nose gear bay. Ain't heated either.
And the @#$%^! seat is made of stainless steel.

#6 Mike K., B-52 has two, a urinal downstairs by the door going back into the wheel wells, bomb bay, etc. and an alleged toilet (a box with a seat) behind the EW seat. That one requires the use of a plastic bag, something not always explained to new crewmembers. Not pleasant when things begin to thaw after landing.
