Exposure to chemicals during pregnancy
can have drastically different results from person to person; some people may have no negative effects, others may have babies with congenital birth defects, and others may miscarry or suffer a stillbirth or neonatal death. In addition to maternal exposure, a father's exposure to some chemicals may increase the risk of miscarriage also by increasing levels of chromosomal abnormalities in the sperm.

The Aerotoxic Association
The association is run by a group of aircrew whose careers have ended prematurely due to Aerotoxic Syndrome,
and we now want to help similarly affected aircrew and passengers.

Have you ever flown and then developed any of the following apparently unexplainable, undiagnosable, mysterious symptoms? Constant fatigue you can't shake off, dizziness, can't think straight, trouble concentrating, memory problems, speech problems, spaced out, not feeling yourself, mood swings, anxiety attacks, breathing difficulties...
The Aerotoxic App informs airline crews and passengers on the subject of exposure with chemicals during flights. The app also offers specific "do it yourself tests" if unknown exposure without prior knowledge and consent, has taken place. |
"Meade and Ronan pull back the curtain on the airline industry and shine a bright light on the dark corners. Everyone who flies or cares about someone who flies should read this eye-opening account of the current state of commercial air travel. What you don't see can hurt you."
