Hey, has anyone ever seen something like noise map which shows how much noise is produced by A/C while on the ground (taxi in and park with APU on) of course depending on the A/C type.

I am looking for any source of the subject which includes those 2 above.

I know noise maps of airports, noise maps during landing and taxing, but I cant find the last process, taxi in and park.

I'm not aware of any, having done 'noise' in a previous life. If they are available then the aircraft manufacturers should be able to offer help, when I was doing it noise levels were recorded from hand held/remote monitors for stand work, I can't recall any specific taxiway monitoring and recording.

Most (all?) aircraft manufacturers have some form of "Airplane Characteristics for Airport Planning" documentation which would normally contain a plot specific for an aircraft type showing noise levels measured at a given radius (60 metres?) 360 degrees around the aircraft. There may be two plots: one for ground idle and one for maximum thrust possible on brakes. It doesn't quite fit into what you ask for, but maybe it's a starting point?

Hi there,

I have the planning manuals for the Airbus fleet, they contain info on noise and the noise map on the ground, APU off, ECS off for each engine type.

Hope this helps.
