The next question would be--why is your 1 year old chewing on the outside of
your airplane??

There are lots of ways to legally cut corners on quality.

It's funny people complains about lead paint here where defending the
use of leaded fuel. Don't forget that tetraethyl lead hasn't been
made in U.S. in years and China might be the only supplier of TEL in
our fuel :-)

I don't know if funny is the word I'd use. Until the advent of unleaded
fuels, the greatest environmental exposure to lead in developed nations was
the lead in fuel. In vivo lead levels have declined considerably since
unleaded fuels became widespread, but aviation fuels for piston engines still
contain lead, so it's entirely plausible that aviators are still being exposed
to lead regularly via this route.

What "route" would that be?

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

But we don't generally coat our children's toys with 100LL.
