Figure 14.1 Significant Progress in Aircraft Noise Reduction Noise Level, EPNdB Lateral Certification Measurement which are reflected in various Australian Government laws such as the Air Navigation (Aircraft Noise) Regulations 1984. Over time, these regulations, in terms of the types of aircraft able to be operated in Australia, have become stricter as aviation technology (including jet engine and air navigation technologies) have improved. 136 120 110 100 90 80 Source: GE Aviation Commercial Aircraft Community Noise Progress B707-300 B707-100 B727-100 Turbojets DC8-20 DC9-10 B747-200 B737-100 DC8-61 DC10-10 First Generation Turbofans B737-200 B747-100 DC10-30 A300B Noise Data Normalized to 100 klb SLS Thrust MD-80 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 Year of Initial Service Boeing McDonnell-Douglas Airbus Bombardier Embraer A380 B787-8/GEnx-1B (Est) B747-300 A330 A319 B747-400 ERJ170 CRJ700 B767-200 A340 B777-300ER B737-300 A310 B737-700 B777 MD11 B777/GE90 A380 CRJ200 B787-8 (Est) Second Generation Turbofans Table 14.3 Airservices Australia Noise Monitoring data Next Generation Turbofans Aviation technology has therefore played an important role in reducing aircraft noise impacts around airports and will continue to do so throughout the planning period. Only aircraft meeting the most stringent noise requirements are permitted to operate at Sydney Airport on a regular basis. These requirements are known as location of NMT Aircraft type Arriving or departing Average lA max db(A) Reduction in noise Sydenham A380 Departing 87.7 - 4.4 B747-400 Departing 92.1 A380 Arriving 93.9 - 2.6 B747-400 Arriving 96.5 Leichhardt A380 Departing 81.7 - 3.9 B747-400 Departing 85.6 A380 Arriving 84.4 - 2.1 B747-400 Arriving 86.5 Annandale A380 Departing 71.5 - 5.5 B747-400 Departing 77.0 St Peters A380 Departing 73.6 - 6.7 B747-400 Departing 80.3 Croydon A380 Departing 76.7 - 2.3 B747-400 Departing 79.0
the Chapter 4 noise standard, applicable from 1 January 2006 for new aircraft and to Chapter 3 aircraft for which re-certification to Chapter 4 is requested. In 1963, when the Sydney Airport curfew was introduced, the most common passenger jet aircraft was the Boeing 707 which had extremely noisy jet engines. The Boeing 727 aircraft that were in wide use until relatively recently were not much better. As a result of much improved technology, today’s aircraft are much quieter, as will the aircraft of the future (see Figure 14.1). In particular, the more recent technologies being used across all sectors of the aviation industry will reduce noise impacts in communities around airports. This is especially true for the new quieter, cleaner and more fuel efficient aircraft such as the A380. Airservices Australia has released a report showing that the A380 is between 2.3 and 6.7 decibels quieter than the 747-400 when departing Sydney Airport (Airservices Australia, 2008). Airservices Australia’s data (Table 14.3) shows the results for various noise monitoring terminals (NMTs) located in suburbs around Sydney Airport. Airservices Australia indicates in its report that “a three decibel reduction is regarded as a halving of an aircraft’s noise energy.” While the B787 is still under development, Boeing claims that the noise footprint of the B787 will be 60% smaller than that of today’s similarly sized aircraft. This will soon become the mainstay of the Qantas Group medium widebody aircraft fleet. The A350XWB is also under development and will be operational during the planning period. A number of A350XWB customers are airlines which regularly use Sydney Airport. Airbus claims the A350XWB will be a faster, more efficient and quieter aircraft as a result of its advanced wing design – which combines aerodynamic enhancements already validated on the A380 with further improvements developed by its engineers. Other noise mitigation strategies A number of other plans, strategies and measures are implemented to manage, ameliorate or prevent aircraft noise impacts. These include: • the overnight curfew on aircraft movements (see Section 3.2); • aircraft movement limit and slot management scheme (see Section 3.3); • noise sharing arrangements (see Section 3.4), 14.0 Sustainability, Climate Change and Environmental Management Sydney Airport Master Plan 2009 • noise insulation program (see below); • restrictions on aircraft types permitted to use Sydney Airport; • the requirements of AS2021 – 2000 Acoustics – Aircraft Noise Intrusion –Building Siting and Construction; and • provision of information to Local Government Authorities about the ANEF contours to allow them to establish appropriate land use zonings and other mechanisms to comply with AS2021- 2000. The statutory context for the curfew, aircraft movement cap and principles of noise sharing arrangements is discussed in Chapter 3. Importantly, this Master Plan is based on: • no change to the curfew; • no change to aircraft flight paths; and • no change to the aircraft movement cap. Further details of the noise sharing arrangements, the insulation program, and restrictions on aircraft types permitted to use Sydney Airport are presented below. Regular monitoring of aircraft noise is carried out by Airservices Australia, which also manages an aircraft noise enquiry unit. The Sydney Airport Community Forum has been established and includes SACL as a member. Aircraft flight paths This Master Plan does not include new or altered flight paths and it upholds the principles of noise sharing as applied by Airservices Australia (see Section 3.4). The current flight paths at Sydney Airport are based on the principles of noise sharing as outlined in the LTOP for Sydney Airport (see Figures 14.2 and 14.3). Flight path management, aircraft noise monitoring and the availability of aircraft noise-related information to the public. The management of flight paths and monitoring of aircraft noise at Sydney Airport is undertaken by the Australian Government agency responsible for such matters, Airservices Australia. At Sydney Airport, Airservices Australia operate the Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS), which collects noise and flight path data 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This information is published each month by Airservices Australia in its Noise and Flight Path Monitoring reports. These are publicly accessible on their website and are used to: • determine the contribution of aircraft to overall noise exposure; 137
