Aircraft Noise Certification

Aircraft Noise Certification is a regulatory process that ensures airplanes meet specific noise level standards before being approved for operation. Authorities test aircraft during different phases of flight, such as takeoff and landing, to measure sound emissions. The goal is to minimize noise pollution impacting communities near airports. Manufacturers design aircraft to comply with these limits, balancing performance and environmental considerations. This certification helps regulate and reduce noise impact, ensuring flights are relatively quieter and more acceptable to nearby residents while maintaining safety and efficiency standards.
