"The Aerotoxic Team is the single best-informed expert body relating
to the issues of aircraft bleed air contamination and
cabin air quality on a global scale."
David Learmount
Who would believe that when people fly, whether for work or pleasure, they are putting themselves in danger? Little is known about the possibility that "exhaust" (bleed-air) gases could contaminate the breathing air in airplane cabins. Depending on the destination, there's also a chance that passengers and crew will be additionally exposed to pesticide fumes. This is more obvious because cabin crew frequently walk the entire cabin while spraying overhead of everyone.
The health concerns that can arise from exposure to such toxic fumes are covered in this substantial body of material, with a focus on flight crews and frequent flyers. The aviation industry claims that these harmful engine "exhaust" fumes that seep into the cabin air are not harmful.
We have known that chemicals top the list of deadly follies that industry has unleashed on the world since the book "Silent Spring" (1962 - Rachel Carson) documented how DDT, a powerful pesticide, was responsible for reproductive disorders in birds and cancer in humans. Insecticide sprays are also used in airplane cabins and are again considered by the industry to be harmless to humans. Have you ever noticed the connection between words like homicide, herbicide, pesticide, fungicide, and many more descriptive words ending with cide? Their meanings are linked. The –cide ending originates from the Latin word caedere meaning ‘to kill’ thus they all have to do with death, destruction, extermination, and intentional killing. The goal of this website is to serve as a resource for education. It provides the most comprehensive collection of data, including interviews, documentaries, scientific resources, medical and laboratory protocols, and crew testimonies, regarding the lack of aviation regulations and the industry's pitiful attempts to improve aircraft cabin air quality in order to protect passengers and crew. With the publication of numerous articles and books, including 'The Air I Breathe - It's Classified' (2016), 'Höhenluft' (2017) in German, and 'Tomb In The Sky-Aviation's Wounded Canaries' (2019), Bearnairdine Beaumont has addressed this challenging topic in the fields of science, technology, and medical health over the years. Her body of work helps to keep the industry on their toes. She has also been publishing articles on Substack and together with Trudie Dadd on Trudie's petition website, since early 2021. Initially, Bearnairdine founded the "International Network Aerotoxic Team" in 2013 - when she withdrew from active campaigning she renamed the website to UNFILTERED in 2020. Bearnairdine has been interviewed on the subject ever since making her public debut in 1997. She has taken part in talk shows, media interviews, and a number of documentaries on TV and film that international media have covered. She has contributed to unraveling the various layers of historical and contemporary influences and dynamics inside the aviation industry regarding its nonexistent approach to cabin air quality by developing an international network and persistently advocating.

for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”
