Mikveh on an Airplane
Question
I saw in Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh De'ah 201:7, that a vessel which was punctured and then sealed with a permanent (building-type) seal is valid for a mikveh.My question is: would it be possible to construct a mikveh on an airplane, and would it be kosher even while the plane is in motion?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
A “building-type” seal means that the vessel becomes connected to the ground through the seal, and that is how it becomes sealed.
How would that be possible to do on an airplane?
