NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

Verify information below with AIP Switzerland or AIP France AD2 LFSB-INI 1a 1. General 1.1 The following procedures are designed to avoid excessive aircraft noise in and around the Bale Mulhouse airport. 1.2 They are applicable to landing and takeoff for any aircraft flying in IFR. 1.3 These procedures are mandatory and Captains cannot ignore them unless if required by the safety of their aircraft. 1.4 Aircraft owners or operators not able to apply these prescriptions shall submit those they intend to adopt to the airport management for approval. 1.5 Hereafter, the word night includes the period 2000-0400 and day the period 0400-2000 (WIN + 1hr) 1.6 Noise measuring stations are located near thresholds of runway 16, 24 08, 26 and in the vicinity. 2. Departure Procedures 2.1 Aircraft shall adopt the climbing configuration and rating corresponding to noise abatement conditions of the moment. 2.2 The initial climb path shall be followed depending on the operational standards specific to each aircraft, in order to reach 5000ft AMSL as soon as possible. 2.3 At night, it is recommended to use RWY 34, except when not allowed by operational conditions. 2.4 At day, it is recommended for certain types of aircraft as noisy by the airport management. 2.5 The use of RWY 26 is recommended for takeoffs depending on the operational standards specific to each aircraft and the operational conditions of the moment. Unless otherwise specified by ATC services, RWY 16 (1820 m) is the preferential runway for 'LUMEL', 'ELBEG', 'STR', and 'GTQ' SID takeoffs. 2.6 For aircraft categories A, B, C and D, paths are protected. 2.7 RWY 16 Departures - The minimum climb gradient is set to 5% - The HOC 2D departure can be used only during the period 0600-2000 (WIN + 1hr) on request from the Captain after checking that the aircraft belongs to the authorized aircraft. The authorized aircraft are: - Propeller aircraft with certificate of nuisance limitation (CLN) - Turbo jet aircraft with a maximum takeoff weight less than 70 T and certified to the standards of ICAO Annex 16 Chapter 3, and whose over flying certification noise level is less than 89 EPNdB. 2.8 RWY 26 Departures The minimum climb gradient is set to 8.5% 3. Arrival Procedures 3.1 Approaches shall be performed along an angle greater than or equal to the angle of the descent path defined by the ILS (RWY 16) or by the visual approach slope indicator system, VASES (RWY 34). 3.2 The descent path shall be selected so as to maintain clean configuration as long as possible with regard to safety and requirements of the air traffic control services. 3.3 Speed-down and trail out are performed to that the aircraft has the configuration and landing speed at the latest at 4 NM from the runway threshold. 3.4 Between 2000 and 0400 (WIN + 1hr) on landing on RWY 16, thrust reversers and pitch reversers may be set to a position exceeding the reverse idle power only when required for safety reasons.

EMISSIONS Surcharge

4/2007 IATA Airport and Air Navigation Charges Manual The engines are classified according to the 5 groups shown below for Geneva/Zurich airports. The impact of engine gas emission intensity on the landing charge is calculated by multiplying the gross amount of the landing charge (before reductions) with the following factors:

Emissions Class	EEF from-to Turbofan	EEF from-to Turboshaft	% to the landing fee
5	0 - <50	0 - <400	0.90
4	50 - <60	400 - <800	1.05
3	60 - <80	800 - <1200	1.20
2	80 - <100	1200 - <2400	1.25
1	100	2400	1.50
0*			1.20
* Engines without official classification are temporarily classified in group 0.

NOISE TAX The Board of Directors voted on September 24, 2004 the introduction of the noise charge as from January 1, 2005. This charge is perceived in function of the aircraft noise emissions. An aircraft takeoff constitutes a taxable event. The noise charge is due at the date of the taxable event. The noise charge is calculated by applying the following formula: Tax = b x t x log(MTOW) where: MTOW = maximum take off weight of the aircraft expressed in tone (any fraction of a ton will be rounded up to the nearest additional ton). t = base rate of the noise charged fixed at EUR 6.00 (adjusted each year based on the domestic retail price index) b = acoustic Coefficient (day or night period) depending on the acoustic groups of the aircraft as referenced under Annex IV (see table above). Aircraft Group Coefficient Departure time (local between) 0600-2200 2200-0600 1 12 120 2 6 60 3 2 20 4 1 10 5 0.5 5

CHAPTER 2 RESTRICTIONS

Chapter 2 airplanes are ban from operating at airports in Switzerland as of April 1, 2002.

CHAPTER 2 PHASEOUT

From April 1, 2002 all civil subsonic jet aeroplanes operating at airports in Switzerland must comply with Chapter 3 standards. See information below:

The Swiss Federal Rule for Chapter 2 Phase out

The Swiss Federal Council has decreed oChapter 2 airplanes >75,000 lbs are ban from operating at airports in EU Member States as of April 1, 2002.n 23rd February 1994 an Ordinance on noise related operating restrictions for jet aircraft (SR 748,121,12) For information and convenience of english speaking readers, the contents of this Ordinance is translated as follows: Article 1 Principle Subsonic jet aircraft which are not certificated according to the standards of Chapter 3 (of ICAO Annex 16) may not operate at Swiss airports after 1 April 1995, except for those defined in Article 2 and 3 hereafter. Article 2 General Exemptions Subsonic jet aircraft with a noise certification corresponding at least to Chapter 2 (of ICAO Annex 16) may operate at Swiss airports for a period of 25 years after their year of manufacture, but no longer than 31 March 2002. Article 3 Authorized Exemptions The Federal Office for Civil Aviation may grant exemptions to Article 1 for important reasons, namely: a) for aircraft registered in developing countries b) for aircraft of historical interest c) for flights for the purpose of alteration, repair or maintenance Article 4 Airport Operating Conditions Airport operators may impose conditions for airport use by aircraft subject to Article 2 and 3, provided these conditions are approved by the Federal Office for Civil Aviation Article 5 Fees The fee due for any exemption granted under Article will be SF140 Article 6 This Ordinance will come into force on 15 March 1994

CHAPTER 3 RESTRICTIONS

As shown in AIP AD 2 LFSB-7 December 25, 2003 No aircraft whose noise certification meets the standards specified in Chapter 3 of the Annex 16 to ICAO and which have an accumulated margin of certified noise levels with respect to permissible noise limits defined in this chapter, being less than 5 EPNdB can land or take-off from 2000 to 0400. Departure or arrival times on the parking area.
