  • SUBJECT: February 2, 2017 Mark Reichin Propeller Airports LLC Paul
    DATE: February 2, 2017 TO: Mark Reichin Propeller Airports LLC FROM: Paul Dunholter, P.E. BridgeNet International SUBJECT: Snohomish County Airport Commercial Service EA Noise Assessment - Response to Comments BACKGROUND The following memo is a response to the comments outlined in the memo “Recommended revisions to noise analysis in EA/FONSI to support incorporation into SEPA” prepared by Jason Volt on September 16, 2016. The memo listed 12 comments that are addressed below. In addition to the response to the comments, the noise contours from the Environmental Assessment (EA) were updated using the FAA’s new AEDT noise model. The results of contour updates are presented in a separate memo report dated February 1, 2017, “Snohomish County Airport (Paine Field) AEDT Noise Contour Update.” The contour update included modeling the original commercial aircraft studied in the NEPA EA as well as alternative commercial aircraft. The “original commercial aircraft” refers to the Q400 regional turbo prop aircraft and MD83 commercial aircraft assumed in the EA, while “Current Generation” refers to the EMB175 regional aircraft and 737800 commercial aircraft that reflect common aircraft used today and assumed to be in service within the planning horizon of the NEPA EA. The Maximum Throughput was also evaluated in that memo for both the assumptions presented in the EA and with an assumed higher level of activity. February 2, 2017 RESPONSE TO COMMENTS 1. Why are counts of operations in the base case (2008) higher than future year 2013 or future year 2018 operations? This is not intuitive. Existing operations numbers should be explained when the report is updated with the base case of 2016 or 2017.

N45480, THE ORIGINAL REDBIRD. One of the best ways to make a pilot feel like they are ying a real airplane is to put them in a real airplane. That’s why when we set out to revolutionize the ight simulation industry, we decided to make our prototype out of a real airplane fuselage, salvaged, restored and modied for use as a simulator cockpit. We started searching aircraft graveyards across the state of Texas to nd a suitable candidate when we stumbled across N45480 decaying in a eld south of Dallas. It was a Cessna 177 Cardinal RG and it was perfect for our rst prototype. Not long after we bought this Cardinal, we realized that the idea of using an old fuselage was not as ingenious as we had once thought. So we revised our plans, and N45480 was sent back to quietly repose in the Texas sun. Although our original plans for her didn’t work out, we’ve never forgotten the plane that was once to become the rst FMX. How could we? After-all we named the company after her. 2 3 MCX The MCX is the perfect option for ight schools focused on ab-initio pilot training, CFI/CFII and CRM training. In addition to the features that you have come to expect from a superior Redbird product such as an electric motion platform that operates in a standard classroom, Standard Features wrap-around visuals to allow for • Electric Motion
