    Conveniently enough, aircraft are mostly in the sky where the general population isn’t exposed to their exhaust, and most people don’t own an airplane or handle aviation fuel

      There are still people living around airfields, where the engines idle waiting for a runway, or run at full throttle furing takeoff.

      Where do you think the lead goes? Is it lighter than air? Will it float higher? Or will it fall?

        Do you think there’s nearly as much lead exposure from aviation fuel for older prop planes compared to literally all ground cars using leaded fuel?
