Civil aviation noise – reduction with economic reality
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 July 2016
Extract
Aircraft noise disturbs a significant number of people who live close to airports. It is tolerated due to the economic and social benefits those aircraft bring to society as a whole. However, the levels that are tolerated from individual aircraft must reduce, to compensate for increases in numbers of aircraft movements and the desire for an ever-improving environment for all of society's members. The issue is how to achieve that reduction without destroying social and economic benefits of air travel.
