Leaded gasoline is still used as aviation fuel.

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

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?

Of course not. Why would you think I'm trying to make that point?

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

Are you seriously this thick or are you just pretending?
