  • Annex H: Impact of Proposed QC 0.0625 Operations
    Annex H: Impact of proposed QC 0.0625 operations Under the current regime, the QC 0.125 category applies to aircraft classified between 81 and 83.9 EPNdB. Aircraft quieter than QC 0.125 (below 81 EPNdB) are classified as QC 0 and are generally comprised of business jets and propeller-driven aircraft. To take further account of quieter aircraft in the longer-term, a new QC 0.0625 band (or “QC sixteenth”) could be introduced for aircraft between 78 EPNdB and 80.9 EPNdB, with QC 0 then applying to aircraft classified below 78 EPNdB. Table 1 provides a list of existing QC 0 aircraft types that could be covered under a new QC 0.0625 category if introduced. To provide an indication of the likely noise impact of an aircraft covered under a new QC 0.0625 band, Figure 1 illustrates the size and extent of the 60 dB LAmax arrival and departure noise footprints for typical easterly (runway 04) operations at Stansted. An outdoor LAmax level of 60 dB corresponds to an indoor noise level of approximately 45 dB, in accordance with the WHO1 recommendation that individual noise events at night exceeding 45 dB should be avoided. Figure 2 illustrates the equivalent 60 dB LAmax noise footprints for westerly operations at Stansted. In each figure, separate footprints are shown for the Buzad (BZD), Clacton (CLN) and Detling (DET) departure routes. The generic QC 0.0625 aircraft used for the comparisons shown in Figures 1 and 2 was modelled to be exactly 3 EPNdB2 quieter than the existing Airbus A320neo, which is classified as QC 0.125 on arrival and departure.
