Sustainable Aviation publishes Noise Road-Map showing how latest-generation aircraft will significantly reduce aviation noise in the UK
- UK aviation noise output is forecast to reduce by 35% in 2035 compared to 2019, despite a rise in air traffic movements.
- Each new aircraft is quieter, and more fuel efficient, than the one it replaces
- Latest-generation aircraft demonstrate up to 50% noise reduction compared to the ‘Legacy’ aircraft they are now replacing
- Continued noise research by UK industry, supported by government, can ensure this trend continues from the mid-2030’s onwards
