[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What is a safe distance from a major airport? If I buy a house 2.5 mi from Dulles, I am worried I'll be exposing my family to VOC's. If I buy a house further out, say in Lansdowne, I will be 45 min from my job and kids schools. Anyone know the dangers/ risks? [/quote] How come all the people who work at the airport- ground crew, mechanics, gate agents, baggage handlers, food service, aircrews, pilots… everyone - how come they’re not dying by the millions every year? They’re a lot closer to jet exhaust than anyone living near an airport. [/quote] Nobody is tracking their health over the course of 20 years. But we have tracked employees working at golf courses and working in dry cleaners and farms and we do know they are more likely to have health problems. [/quote]
