This is an Article from: http://www.ScientificAmerican.com   Dear EarthTalk: Lead was long ago phased out of automobile gasoline, but it is still in aviation fuel and is now the largest source of lead emissions in the U.S. What’s being done?—L. Eber, Rye, N.Y. Yes, aviation fuel emerged as the largest source of lead emissions in the U.S. once lead was phased out of automotive gasoline beginning in the 1970s. While jets, which comprise the majority of commercial aircraft, don’t use leaded fuel, smaller, piston-engine planes use enough leaded aviation fuel (nicknamed “avgas”)...

I was woken up out of a sound sleep this morning at 6:05AM by the sound of loud aircraft over my roof. None of us get to enjoy our lives or have any peace and quiet, my entire day is destroyed, and our nerves are on end from the early morning barrage of aircraft over Sedona.  This is how we are jarred out of bed everyday, all so a few people can fly in the air above our head, this is a recreational highway above my roof. All the neighborhoods should be condemned here for noise, exhaust concentration levels that build up and jet fuel dumping, these all create an unsafe living condition.  The parks...

Consider the effects of one chemical benzene in addition to the other 2,000 chemicals together forming a super toxic, deadly, soup.  Multiple exposures to benzene causes cancer. The effects of breathing the 2000 chemicals in jet fuel aerosol-ed over people has never been studied but it is a safe assumption that it is deadly.  In Fallon, Nevada, when military jets were dumping jet fuel the cattle beneath the jet fuel dumping all died.  After breathing a jet fuel dump we find bruises all around on bodies n places we did not hit, this is a normal reaction to large doses of benzene and ethylbenzene.  You...

http://imva.info/index.php/2010/07/medical-treatments-for-airborne-poisons/ I am posting this because it aerosolized petrol happens in Sedona too in the form of jet fuel dumping!  A little education on breathing jet fuel. People in the Gulf as being exposed to a smell like paint thinner from the Gulf Oil spill, they are getting whiffs of benzene and other chemicals. Don’t listen to any doctor or healthcare official who says negative effects are temporary. If you can smell it you are in danger, this includes what you smell coming from aircraft in Sedona. When you are poisoned with oil compounds,...

It is so fun to breathe raw jet fuel and die, this blog is my online diary chronicling the death of myself and my husband at the hands of the FAA and the Sedona Airport and their jet pilots.  They knew that allowing larger jets here would open the airport to illegal jet fuel dumping, despite being told over and over again this is occurring the Airport continues it's business, putting everyone's life at risk. They killed Amanda Coughlin and Jordan and now they are killing us.  I am searching for the right law firm to go after these evil, low life, scum.  What did I do to deserve a death sentence...

On Wednesday, May 16th a business jet flew over my home at 8:15pm dumping raw jet fuel over my roof.  Robert was in the yard when this jet fuel dump occurred. He immediately ran in the house to avoid directly inhaling jet fuel into his lungs. Hiding in our house does not help us because southwestern homes are designed to breathe.  By midnight my blood pressure had skyrocketed from 118/68 to 171/112. My heart rate and blood pressure stayed high for three days.  Robert's blood pressure was also extremely elevated for three days.  I spent the next three days in the house in bed trying to recover. ...

REPRINTED ARTICLE REMOVED FROM THE SEDONA AIRPORT WEBSITE AND ARCHIVED BELOW. Special thanks to Wayback Machine for saving this. This is one of many pieces of propaganda put out over the years.  Not once has the airport ever informed the public that the airport contributes about .73 tons of lead into the air in our town and that we have lead poisoning, or how risky it is to our children. They have never offered to test any children or other citizens.  Despite mountains of evidence showing jet fuel causes CANCER, harms the immune system, liver, lungs, pulmonary function, causes brain damage...

Aircraft that do not need leaded Avgas often are forced to buy leaded Avgas because that is all that is offered at the airport.  What is the Sedona airport selling? Avgas accounts for less than 1 percent of the nation's liquid fuel use. Yet enough piston–engine planes fly enough miles on avgas to belch out half of all the lead going into the nation's air.   Dear EarthTalk: Lead was long ago phased out of automobile gasoline, but it is still in aviation fuel and is now the largest source of lead emissions in the U.S. What's being done? — L. Eber, Rye, NY Yes, aviation fuel emerged as the largest...

This is my Sunday morning in Sedona.  I have to vacate my home now.  How would you like this to be your Sunday morning?  We are trapped breathing jet fumes, our blood pressure is already going up at 9:30AM, despite the windows being closed and running air purification equipment.  I have spasms in my face now.  Robert's pulse went from 56 to 97.  This photo was taken this morning after one jet flew over our neighborhood, imagine what ten to twenty jets does to our air?  We are dying here. No, that is not an exaggeration, Amanda and Jordan have both passed away in the last month.  We have...

With no where for the benzene to evacuate to, we are stuck breathing this and dozens of other toxic chemicals.  These exhaust fumes fall of the airport mesa in all directions, mix with car exhaust and sunlight and create even deadlier particulate matter. BENZENE: Merely One ingredient in Jet Fuel, A HUMAN CARCINOGEN by Raphael Metzger, Esq. Benzene is also a known human carcinogen. Benzene causes various types of leukemia, lymphoma, and blood diseases. The first case reports of benzene-induced blood diseases date from 1897. The first report of benzene causing leukemia was published in 1928....
