6 Summary of Community Recommendations Increase altitudes of early morning flights Increase altitudes on downwind to Runway 06 Increase altitudes over Fort Myers Beach Turn aircraft before reaching beach Extend aircraft further over ocean before turns toward beach Implement Estero Plan Delay point at which aircraft put gear down Route aircraft over Gulf and unpopulated areas Use low power continuous descent approaches Don t change aircraft paths to fly over our community Move Runway 24 departure procedures to less populated area Minimize late night flights over residential areas Shift Runway 06 downwind south Encourage airlines to use quieter aircraft Fan departing aircraft Provide opportunity for public input before any changes Concerns over air quality, wildlife, soot, safety, property values

10 Why is 65 DNL Important? 65 DNL and higher = FAA and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) consider to be incompatible with residential, schools, hospitals and other noise-sensitive uses near airports. Less that 65 DNL Contour = federal government considers all uses compatible with airport noise There is no FAA impact threshold for noise significance associated with a single aircraft overflight.

13 Noise Study Process - Part 2 Develop Noise Compatibility Plan (NCP) Part 2 15% complete Evaluate changes to flight procedures Aircraft flight corridors Aircraft altitudes Preferred runway use Flight procedure evaluation constraints Do not compromise safety Do not create delays in the air traffic system Do not create a burden on FAA (i.e. time) or airlines (i.e., fuel) Do not merely move flights over another community Evaluate land use overlay zoning NCP approved by local Board Submit to FAA for approval and implementation

14 Evaluations Currently Under Way Raise downwind approach to Runway 6 to 5,000 Keep aircraft at 3,000 over Ft. Myers Beach (currently a voluntary procedure) Increase glide slope to 3.5 degrees Establish Optimized Profile Descent (Southwest Airlines Approach) Implement Estero Plan (SHFTY to TYNEE transition) Publish Charted Visual Approach to Runway 6 Publish RNAV procedure for Runway 6 Departures Move downwind leg to Runway 6 further south Establish helicopter noise abatement flight tracks Establish Runway 24 as the designated calm wind runway Establish reverse thrust restrictions Identify run-up location(s) on the airfield Implement NBAA and/or AOPA noise abatement best practices Install runway end noise abatement reminder signs Publish Jeppesen type pilot handout Update land use overlay zones Designate future land acquisition for noise sensitive areas
