My left ear is screwed up because I was riding in a single engine piston private plane with a buddy and during takeoff I readjusted the left ear cup of my Bose noise cancelling headset.
Between the engine noise and the Bose headset trying to cancel sound from the entire cockpit, I lost all hearing above 7KHz and have constant tinnitus.
No JP-8 was harmed in the process. Just a few gallons of 100LL.

"Exposure to jet fuel, not just noise, contributes to hearing problems"Yes, an interesting article...However, I forsee a new medical/pharmaceutical industry springing forth and a lot of Snake Oil being sold for the new hard of hearing.

I’m so far behind the times I remember when JP-4 was the in thing.
And JP-7 was for that one thing that went all zoom ‘n’ stuff.

So anyone, who was a Skittle on a carrier has the potential of two adverse exposure problems.

What about soldiers and marines filling their vehicles and generators with JP-8? If they do not include them, then the study is flawed.
