This report provides details of an analysis of data by the Aircraft Noise Ombudsman’s office comparing full length runway departures and departures from an intersection. It incorporates information from various sources and draws a conclusion on the merits, or otherwise, of further research to determine whether there are significant noise benefits in full length departures as opposed to intersection departures.
The Aircraft Noise Ombudsman acknowledges Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past and present.
