While I have no desire to get in between you and the flight sim guy, here is
why lead was removed from auto fuel.

I remains in aviation fuel because of the requirements of safety, especially
in turbocharged piston aviation engines, and the slow rate of the approval
process for replacement fuels. The corn growers association says they have
the answer, and I'm sure they wouldn't try to gloss over any shortcomiongs
just to make money.

We do come into contact with fuel so it is possible to meet up with a little
TEL, I'll worry when the high time pilots start showing symptoms.

What "route" would that be?

Inhaling lead-containing fuel additives, such as tetraethyl lead.

When and how do we inhale significant amounts of these?
Why are these additives in the fuel in the first place?


I would like you to explain to us what was the impetus for removing lead
from automotive fuels, and why it has remained in aviation fuel. Please
be specific - inquiring minds are starved for your precious information,
assuming this is one of the many subjects you have "already studied". . .
