Pilots flying
their aircraft as quietly as possible and avoiding unnecessary over flights
of residential and other noise sensitive areas are the key to a successful
noise management program. Our program focuses on pilot education and
cooperation. Experience shows that this offers the greatest relief to the
community.
This pilot guide to noise abatement procedures established at our airport
has been prepared to help you operate your aircraft in the quietest manner
possible, consistent with safety. The information is designed to
help the airport be a good neighbor to the surrounding residential
communities. Please comply with these procedures unless deviations are
made necessary by weather, air traffic control instructions, an in-flight
emergency, or other safety considerations.
