NOISE PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OPERATION OF US ARMY AIRCRAFT

Abstract

This report describes and illustrates basic, as well as unique, characteristics of noise associated with the operation of Army aircraft. It summarizes the important facts relative to hazardous noise, its effects on man, the characteristics of noise generators, noise reduction concepts, and future noise problems. The purpose is to alert aviation medical officers, flight surgeons, and physicians in the Army to this problem, and provide guidance in those circumstances where a problem of potentially hazardous noise exists.
