I will actually allow myself to get a little dehydrated for a day or two before flying just to avoid, if possible, having to go while airborne.

One of the mechanics I used to fly with was about 6'6" and well over 300 pounds. He had some very disturbing complex about taking a dump. We all learned very early on with this guy to never let him into our hotel room. He thought it was funny as hell to plug your toilet, which he could seemingly do at will.

We were in Mexico one time, about 40 of us on our tour bus commuting from the hotel to the airport. The damn thing actually had a restroom. No one was really paying attention when this guy climbed down the stairs into it... My God, when that door reopened and he emerged... Think Fat Bastard. The driver actually pulled over and stopped so we could all get out for awhile. We were late getting to the hangar and the night crew was pissed.

So, yeah, he did this on airplanes as well. He managed to empty most of First Class one time, on a British Airways 777 on our way to Heathrow. Passengers standing in the aisles in coach waiting for it to clear. Shaw sitting all by himself in First Class, satisfied Cheshire cat grin on his face.
