NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES

2. Procedure to minimize noise

Aircraft below FL 150 will normally be cleared to achieve a continuous descent to the runway in use.

Low Drag - Lower Approach

a) Comply with any speed adjustments by ATC as promptly and as accurately as operationally possible. If unable to maintain an assigned speed due to metrological or operational reasons advice ATC

b) If not otherwise advised, IAS 250 KT has to be maintained below FL 100. If the cruising speed is less than 250 KT, cruising speed has to be maintained. Last 10 NM from threshold speed has to be reduced so as to reach 160 KT shortly before the OM (4 NM from threshold runway 29). The approach shall be conducted in "clean configuration" as long as possible.

c) If the ceiling at the airport is below 500 ft and/or the ground visibility is less than 2000 M this procedure is recommended only.

d) Pilots who are unable to comply with these speed assignments shall inform ATC accordingly.

e) These speeds indicated above shall be maintained within a tolerance of plus or minus 10 KT.

The published standard instrument departure routes (SID) are also noise abatement procedures; strict adherence is compulsory within the limits of performance.

See AIP Austria for details.

AIRPORT CURFEWS

In the time between 22:30 and 0600 local time, only those aircraft will be accepted which full fill the following requirements:

a) Chapter 2 - aircraft with a maximum take-off weight above 60,000 kg equipped with engines with a by-pass ration of 2 or more and,

and

b) where the sum of the levels of the three noise certification points (approach, takeoff, sideline) does not exceed the limit calculated according to the following formula:

LEPN = 288 for MTOW < 25,000 kg
LEPN = 288 + 29.9*log(MTOGW/25,000) for 25,000<317,500kg
LEPN = 321 for MTOW > 317,500 kg.

PREFERENTIAL RUNWAYS - NONE

OPERATING QUOTA - NONE

ENGINE RUN-UP RESTRICTIONS - NONE

APU OPERATING RESTRICTIONS

Restriction for APUs:
Maximum noise level of LPA=85 dB(A) measured at each -

- cargo door
- passenger door
- points of the aircraft, which are used for ground handling and service during ground service.

Start up of APU max. 30 minutes before estimated departure. Shut down of APU max. 30 minutes after touch down.

NOISE BUDGET RESTRICTIONS - NONE

NOISE SURCHARGE

A noise charge (Environment Levy - Govermental) of EUR 1.12 per departing passenger went into effect 1/1/2006.

Limits:
At the moment no noise level limits are valid, except those described in Amendment to the Austrian Noise Regulations. At the NMTs measured noise levels are only used for monitoring. Maybe during the next two years a new federal law for noise level restrictions will be introduced.

FLIGHT TRACK MONITORING SYSTEM - NONE
