NOISE AND FLIGHT PATH MONITORING SYSTEM MELBOURNE QUARTERLY REPORT OCTOBER - DECEMBER 212 Date Version Comments

Page 2 Foreword Airservices Australia has established a Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS) at Australia's major airports. Operated from a single control centre, the system monitors aircraft operations and their environmental effects at airports across the Australian continent. This report provides a brief description of the system and the data it collects and processes. It also contains a summary of data collected in Melbourne over the quarter October to December 212 by the NFPMS. The data mainly relates to operations at Melbourne Airport, however some of the data captured involve operations at Essendon Airport. In rare circumstances, data within the NFPMS may be updated that can cause slight changes to historic data that has been previously published. DISCLAIMER This report contains a summary of data collected over the specified period and is intended to convey the best information available from the NFPMS at the time. The system databases are to some extent dependent upon external sources and errors may occur. All care is taken in preparation of the report but its complete accuracy can not be guaranteed. Airservices Australia does not accept any legal liability for any losses arising from reliance upon data in this report which may be found to be inaccurate.

Page 8 1. INTRODUCTION Under its environmental responsibilities, Airservices Australia (AA) has established a Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS) at Australia's major airports. An overview of the NFPMS is shown in Appendix A. A map displaying all noise and flight path monitoring locations in Australia is shown in Figure 1. This report is a summary of data collected by the Melbourne segment of the system over the fourth quarter (October to December) 212. The data used within this report has been obtained from an upgraded NFPMS system. As a result, some slight changes to the presented graphics may exist. Figure 1: Noise and flight path monitoring locations in Australia

Page 9 2. NMT LOCATIONS AND NOISE DATA SUMMARIES The Melbourne component of the NFPMS has six permanently installed Noise Monitoring Terminals (NMTs) which are strategically located around Melbourne Airport as shown in Figure 2 and listed in Table 1. Google 29, this image is used by Airservices Australia under licence from Google and is not to be reproduced or used in any way without the express permission of Google Figure 2: Locations of NMTs around Melbourne Airport.

Page 1 The A-weighted average noise exposure levels (LAeq) for the current and preceding 4 quarters at each NMT are contained in Table 1, the values for the night period (23: to 6: each day) are given in brackets. These noise levels encompass the whole environment (including aircraft) as measured at each NMT. Also included in Table 1 are the number of correlated noise events (CNE), and the N7, N8 and N9 values for each NMT during the quarter. N7 is calculated by dividing the total number of CNE equal to or greater than 7 db(a) detected during the quarter by the number of days in the quarter that the NMT is in operation (Op Days). For N8 and N9, the CNE noise thresholds are 8 db(a) and 9 db(a) respectively. Appendix D includes graphs showing the daily value of N7 at each NMT excluding days where an NMT was not operational for a full 24 hours. In some cases an NMT may suffer a hardware outage, for example during routine maintenance. The caption under each graph details such outages for each NMT during the quarter. The distribution of N7 values is also included in Appendix D.

Page 12 3. QUARTERLY TRACK DATA 3.1. Quarterly track density plots. The quarterly track density plot is a map which displays the pattern of aircraft flight tracks passing over the region around the airport during the quarter. The system counts the number of flights passing over each grid element of an array defined by the user. Grid elements of 2m x 2m have been adopted as a standard. The track density plot takes into account all aircraft and provides a useful indication of the general patterns of the flight operations. Figure 3 shows the quarterly track density plot for all aircraft operations for the fourth quarter of 212. The colour coding from green to red represents the range 184 to 184 flight tracks (i.e. 2 flights per day to 2 or more per day) over a grid element. If any grid element is not colour-coded, the number of aircraft flight tracks passing over that element during the quarter was less than 184, i.e. less than 2 flights per day on average. The concentration towards the lower right-hand corner of the plot includes aircraft using Essendon Airport. The grey circles within Figure 3 show the location of each NMT. For comparison purposes, the quarterly track density plot for jet operations only for the quarter is shown in Figure 4. The quarterly track density plots for jet arrivals only and jet departures only are shown in Figures 5 and 6 respectively. 3.2. Jet track plots. Plots of actual tracks for arrivals and departures of individual aircraft or particular types of aircraft can also be obtained from the system. Figures 7 and 8 show the track plots for jet arrivals and departures over the one-week period 2nd to 8th December 212. These tracks have been coloured according to the aircraft height above ground level. Note that using the upgraded NFPMS, Figures 7 and 8 present track plots in height above ground level. This is slightly different to the previous system where track plots were presented in altitude (height above sea level). Red when less than 1ft Orange between 1ft and 3ft Yellow between 3ft and 5ft Green above 5ft. These heights have been chosen in accordance with the criteria in the document Environment Principles and Procedures for Minimising the Impact of Aircraft Noise. This document can be found on the Airservices Australia's web site: www.airservicesaustralia.com/projectsservices/reports/ 3.3. Non-jet and helicopter track plots. Non-jet operations are principally the operations of propeller and turbo-prop aircraft. The track plots for the period 2nd to 8th December 212 for arriving and departing non-jet aircraft and helicopters are shown in Figures 9 and 1 respectively. The same colour coding used for jet track plots is used in these figures. For both arrivals and departures by non-jets, the tracks disperse from the runway centrelines closer to the airport, to allow a clear path for jets, which are significantly faster.

Page 13 4. AIRCRAFT MOVEMENT AND AIRCRAFT NOISE DATA 4.1. Airfield operational impacts. No runway maintenance notice was reported for the fourth quarter of 212 4.2. Movement statistics. Movement statistics for Melbourne Airport expressed in monthly figures are shown in Table 2. These figures are calculated from the NFPMS's monthly data outputs shown in Appendix B. Explanations of the terms shown in Table 2 can be found in the Glossary section on Pages 6 and 7. The figures are based on The Australian Advanced Air Traffic System (TAAATS) data. Table 2 also covers the runway usage for arrivals and departures individually and as a total for each runway. Although their flight tracks may be available on NFPMS, TAAATS does not always provide operational details for movements by helicopters and light propeller-driven aircraft. This is the main reason that the Table includes figures for operations by miscellaneous General Aviation aircraft, or aircraft with indeterminate runway (I). The total number of monthly arrival (A) and departure (D) movements of all types (jets, non-jets and helicopters) at Melbourne Airport for October was 18857, for November was 18527 and for December was 18429. The total number of arrival and departure movements for all aircraft types during the fourth quarter was 55813. Note that a training operation involving multiple circuits is counted by the system as a single movement, which may be arrival or departure. This is the reason that numbers of arrivals may differ from the corresponding numbers of departures. It is also the reason that movement numbers obtained from TAAATS data may differ from other ATC-sourced data. In addition to the movement numbers of Table 2 the NFPMS detected 1494 local area operations which both originated and terminated at either Melbourne or Essendon airports. Some of these were General Aviation aircraft operations involved multiple training circuits at the airport. For comparison purposes, Tables 3 and 4 contain the movement statistics for the previous four quarters.

Page 22 4.3. Night movement statistics. Movement statistics for aircraft operating during the night period (23: to 6:) for Melbourne Airport are shown in Table 5 and are calculated from the monthly NFPMS data outputs given in Appendix C. The total number of arrival and departure movements during the night period in the fourth quarter of 212 was 491. Night movement statistics for the previous four quarters are shown in Tables 6 and 7. 4.4. Daily runway usage per calendar month for arrivals and departures during the quarter. The daily runway usage per calendar month for arrivals and departures of all aircraft types including jets, non-jets, helicopters and emergency aircraft during the quarter is shown in Appendix E in which the movement figures of aircraft arrivals and departures are counted separately and wholly per runway for each day of the calendar month for the quarter. 4.5. Hourly movements per calendar month for arrivals and departures during the quarter. The hourly movements per calendar month of the quarter for all aircraft movements operating in and out of the airport including helicopters and emergency aircraft are shown in Appendix F. The data in Appendix F are calculated for whole clock hours within the day. 4.6. Quarterly aircraft average noise levels. Appendix G presents a summary of movement numbers and noise levels recorded over the quarter for jet and non-jet aircraft types. It shows the actual movements and the correlated noise events of aircraft types operating on specific runways together with the average maximum sound pressure levels and standard deviations of the maxima for overflights by each type at each NMT. The terms used in the data output are explained in the Glossary. The data is sorted in order of descending maximum sound pressure levels for the 25 noisiest types/operations at each NMT. 4.7. Data included in Appendix G. It may be noted in Appendix G that in some cases there is a difference between the reported number of aircraft movements and the number of correlated noise events. A noise event occurs when a noise being measured at an NMT stays above a preset level for preset time duration. When that condition occurs, the NFPMS looks at the radar input to see whether there is an aircraft track within a preset radius around the NMT location. If there is, the noise event is correlated with that aircraft track and registered as a correlated noise event.

Page 23 Differences between the number of aircraft movements and the number of correlated noise events may be due to the following: (i) For aircraft operations which are not relatively close to the NMT location, the noise levels received from the aircraft may be below the event threshold level. This results in less correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements. (ii) Noise events may not be correlated with aircraft tracks due to radar system downtime or transponders on the aircraft being turned off. This also results in less correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements. (iii) In some cases, extraneous noise events caused by sources other than aircraft occur concurrently with an aircraft operation, and are coincidentally correlated with an aircraft track in the vicinity of the NMT. This may result in more correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements. For larger data samples, the absence or mistaken identity of some noise events will have minimal effect on the mean data presented in the report. Data for small sample sizes may however not be truly representative. A minimum total of six over flights have been used to establish a mean noise level. As a result, it should be noted that with this small sample size the mean noise level can be viewed as being less accurate.

Page 3 APPENDIX A An Overview of the Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System

Page 31 A. SYSTEM OVERVIEW A.1. System configuration and features. The NFPMS is the world's largest, most geographically-spread system of its type. The complete system is operated and controlled from AA Head Office in Canberra. Around each of the airports are a number of noise monitoring terminals (NMTs). The NMT basically consists of a microphone, atop a mast of 6m height, and an electronics box. The noise level to which the microphone is exposed over the range 3 to 14 db(a) is continuously measured and then transmitted, via a data line, to the NFPMS central computer where it is processed and stored for later analysis. Apart from measuring the aircraft noise, the NMT also continuously monitors the background noise levels. Through the TAAATS system, the NFPMS acquires flight track and operational information on aircraft operating in and out of the airport. On a map display for each airport, the system displays the noise levels measured by each of the NMTs and the flight tracks of the aircraft in the vicinity of the airport. When the level and duration of noise from any noise source in the vicinity of an NMT exceed the threshold level and duration which have been set for the NMT, a "noise event" is recorded. The time at which the noise event is recorded at the NMT location is then checked against movement times and radar tracks of aircraft operating in the vicinity. If the time and NMT location of the noise event match the movement time and radar track of an aircraft, the noise event is attributed to that aircraft, i.e. it becomes a correlated noise event. Otherwise, it is regarded as part of the background noise. The incoming data is stored in the central computer and can be recalled to display the tracks flown by any user selection of aircraft operations, together with the noise levels which those operations produced at the NMTs. The track information includes aircraft identity, altitude and speed. The system includes statistical and acoustical software to undertake analyses of noise or flight track information as required by the user. Automatically and regularly, the NFPMS produces reports that contain tabular and graphical summaries of noise and aircraft movement data for each airport over selected time periods. The system includes the capability to analyse aircraft tracks, by selecting and listing the tracks which have passed through defined windows and corridors. The analysis can be selective, e.g. on specification of aircraft type or the route being flown.

Page 32 A.2. System applications. The NFPMS collects noise and flight path data 24 hours a day, seven days per week. It also accumulates flight plan and weather data. The information collected is used by AA to: determine the contribution of aircraft to overall noise exposure; detect occurrences of excessive noise levels from aircraft operations; assess the effects of operational and administrative procedures for noise control and compliance with the procedures; assist in planning of airspace usage; validate noise forecasts and forecasting techniques; assist relevant authorities in land-use planning for developments on areas in the vicinity of an airport; provide reports to, and responses to questions from, Government and other Members of Parliament, industry organisations, airport owners, community groups and individuals; and assist in answering noise complaints about aircraft operations from the general public.
