NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

Arrivals Maintain last assigned level as long as practicable before starting final approach. Speed reduction and extension of landing gear and highlift devices shall be planned in such a way, that the conditions of a stabilized approach is established and correct approach speed is reached at 5 NM on final track. Descent on the final approach shall be arranged so that increase of the engine power may be avoided as far as possible. No instrument or visual approach shall be made at an angle less than determined by the 3 degree ILS glide path or by PAPI. Pilots are requested to limit application of reverse thrust to idle power setting except when operational conditions require higher settings to be used. Departures For noise abatement procedures of departing aircraft see SID charts. The required climbing gradient for aircraft executing standard instrument departure procedures (SID) is at least 5.5% until passing 7000 feet QNH.

CONTINUOUS DESCENT ARRIVAL (CDA) - NONE

AIRPORT CURFEWS

The term "night" covers the period between 2200 and 0600 hours local time. During the night hours the run-up of engines with full power is strictly prohibited. During the night hours are prohibited: a) to carry out training- and check flights b) to land or take-off with aircraft not having noise certification according to the provisions of ICAO Annex 16, Volume I. Part II. Chapter 3 c) during the night hours non-scheduled commercial flights and non-traffic stops may be carried out in limited numbers. Such individual flights are approved on the basis of internal orders by the Airside Operations Department. d) Between 2400 and 0500 LT scheduled landing and take-offs cannot be planned. e.)those flights wich are constrained by adverse weather or technical reason may use the aerodrome for landing during night hours as well.

PREFERENTIAL RUNWAYS

According to the prevailing surface wind, normally runway 31R is used for landing and runway 31L for take-off. Exeptions: - Aircraft having noise certification according to ICAO Annex 16, Volume I. Chapter 3, or of light wake turbulence category or VIP flights may request runway 31L for landing. - When the available runway length of runway 31L is not acceptable according to the Flight Operational Manual for a given aircraft, the pilot may request runway 31R for take-off. If meteorological conditions (e.g.wind) require, runway 13R will be used for landing and runway 13L for take-off. Exceptions: - Aircraft having noise certification according to ICAO Annex 16, Volume I. Chapter 3 or of light wake turbulence category or VIP flights and aircraft departing from stands Nr. 1-6 at apron 1, may request runway 13R for take-off. Noise abatement should not be the determining factor in runway nomination under the following conditions: a) if the runway is not clear and dry, i.e. it is adversely affected by snow, slush, ice or water, or by mud, rubber, oil or other substances. b) for landing in conditions when ceiling is lower than 500 feet above aerodrome elevation or for take-off and landing when the horizontal visibility is less than 1.9 km. c) when the cross-wind component, including gusts, exceed 15 kt d) when the tail-wind component, including gusts, exceed 5 kt e) when wind shear has been reported or forecast or when thunderstorms are expected to affect the approach or departure.

NOISE SURCHARGE

Noise Charge at Budapest Ferihegy International Airport - valid from January 1, 2008) According to Section 66/A of the Air Transport Act, BA Zrt, may collect the costs for noise protection from those operating aircraft causing noise as an element of the charge for the use of the airport in order to provide for the funds necessary to the performance of the duties prescribed in the Air Transport Act and by the 176/07 government decree on the rules of the marking, utilization and termination of the noise prevention areas to be established in the vicinity of airports. Formula Charge = A*K*N*M A: basic fee EUR 6.00 per movement K: aircraft category Cat. 1: 0.4 Cat. 2: 1 Cat. 3: 1.8 Cat. 4: 3 N: time factor Daytime (06.00-22:00) Daytime (22:00-24:00) Morning (05:00-06:00) Night (24:00-05:00) 1 1.5 1.5 10 M: movement factor Take-off Landing 0.91 1.1 The aircraft whose noise levels are expressed in terms of EPNdB units of measurement in their noise certificates shall be classified on the basis of the flyover noise level indicated in the noise certificate in the case of take-offs, and on the basis of the arithmetical mean of the noise levels indicated in the noise certificate in respect of the approach and lateral reference points in the case of landings: Category 1 EPNdB Category 2 EPNdB Category 3 EPNdB Category 4 EPNdB L< or = 82.3 82.3 < L <or = 90.3 90.3 < L <or = 94.3 94.3 < L For aircraft whose noise levels are indicated in dB(A) units of measurement in the noise certificate, in the case of take-offs and landings: Category 1 dB(A) Category 2 dB(A) Category 3 dB(A) Category 4 dB(A) L <or = 71.3 71.3 < L < or = 79.3 79.3 < L < or = 83.3 83.3 < L

NOISE MONITORING SYSTEM

The noise monitoring system consists of 6 Noise Monitor Terminals (NMT), manufacturer of the noise monitoring system is Bruel & Kjaer, Type 7618, type of applied noise monitoring terminals are 3597. The noise data processing is carried out by an IBM-PC and another PC carries out the correlation with stored flight information data. The terminals are connected by automatic dial-up modems through telephone lines. Data is collected four times a day. We determine the noise limits by so-called Zurich method. The distances and positions of NMTs are given by the following table. NMT Distance from the Runway Distance from the Centerline Position Name of the Runway 1 4.8km 300m right side 13R 2 1.8km 300m right side 13R 3 2.2km 0m center line 13L 4 2.1km 300m left side 31L 5 7.2km 0m center line 13L 6 5.8km 200m left side 31R
