NOISE SURCHARGE

4.1.1.4 Noise charges - Praha/Ruzyne airport 4.1.1.4.1 Basis for calculation of noise charge is noise category and aircraft MTOW according to: a) item 4.1.1.1.1.1 b) or b) item 4.1.1.1.1.1 c) Noise charge is applied only to aircraft with MTOW over 9 tons. If the condition according to item a) or b) is not met, the table value according to aircraft type used and wording according to 4.1.1.4.5 will be taken. Setting of priorities for inclusion of an aircraft to the noise category and charge calculation is realized according to item 4.1.1.1.1.1. Exception about “FLEXI MTOW concept” application according to 4.1.1.1.1.2 is also valid. 4.1.1.4.2 Aircraft are assigned to the noise category according to the following criteria related to the limits of ICAO Annex 16/I, Part II. 4.1.1.4.2.1 Aircraft certified according Chapter 3, 4 and 5 or 2 - 2.4.2. The difference are calculated by substraction of noise level values given in noise certificate from noise limit according the appropriate chapter of part II of ICAO Annex 16/I. Aircraft is included into respective noise category according to the accrued difference in accordance with Chapter 4. In the case, that in some point the noise level is over the limit of the appropriate chapter of part II of ICAO Annex 16/I, aircraft is included into next higher noise category.
New Category 1	the accured difference of 15 EPNdB or more
New Category 2	the accured difference from 10 - 14.9 5 EPNdB
New Category 3	the accured difference from 5 - 9.9 EPNdB
