that carries far ther and has an impact on more people than even the loudest conventional jets now in use a Transportation Department report concludes The report says the plane noise will prdbably not sound much louder than the noisiest conventional jets but that fre quency levels produced by the SST engines will probably cover a greater distance adverse public reaction is the re port warns if the federal gov ernment allows either plane to begin scheduled flights at any US airport except possibly the new Dallas ort Worth regional airport That airport is surroun ded by sparsely populated land The Concorde already has made several demonstration flights into US airports and its builders currently have pending with the ederal Aviation Ad ministration a request for ap proval of 36 promotional flights from London to US cities The plane could begin regularly scheduled service as early as the end of 1975 The report dated Dec 11 1973 was turned over to lawyers for the Environ mental Defense und as the result of a court suit ED' made the document available to the public The report says the Concorde using the recommended landing strip at John Kennedy Inter national Airport in New York City would expose 55000 per sons to noise levels of 100 effec tive perceived noise decibels EPNdBs) or about the same sensation of noise a person would get standing 50 feet from a highway as a heavyduty diesel truck roared past In contrast the report said a Boeing 707 using the same land ing strip would expose about 35000 persons to the same noise and a 707 with sound absorbing material in its engines would expose about 7000 persons to the same noise The EPNdB measurement takes into account such factors as tonal quality and frequency levels as well as actual decibel counts A measurement of 110 EPNdBs would sound twice as loud as 100 EPNdBs The report says the Concorde will produce about 115 EPNdBs on each takeoff and each land ing In contrast the DC10 jum bo jet one of the new family of lower noise producing aircraft produces 99 EPNdBs on takeoff and 106 at landing However the noise levels are deceptively low the report says The noise levels quoted for the Concorde (and the TU144) do not accurately represent the impact of that aircraft relative to subsonic aircraft however it said Mrs Elsie Rogers MARION Mrs Elsie Meggs Rogers died Thursday in a Marion hospital after a long
