USAF Bioenvironmental Noise Data Handbook: Volume 56. HC-130N In-Flight Crew Noise

Abstract

The HC-130N is a USAF aircraft used to search for, locate and recover personnel and/or retrieve material in global air and space operations; it also serves as an air refueling tanker for helicopters. This report provides measured data defining the bioacoustic environments at flight crew/passenger locations inside this aircraft during normal flight operations. Data are reported for 14 locations in a wide variety of physical and psychoacoustic measures: overall and band sound pressure levels, C-weighted and A-weighted sound levels, preferred speech interference level, perceived noise level, and limiting times for total daily exposure of personnel with and without standard Air Force ear protectors.
