A thread against helicopters & their noise pollution, couched as a statement regarding Federal Aviation Administration’s Aircraft Noise Policy & Research Efforts, submitted today via FAA’s on-line comment portal. My name is Charles Komanoff. I live & work in lower Manhattan. 1/n I am fluent in environmental costing & noise pollution. My 2000 monograph for the Noise Pollution Clearinghouse, Drowning in Noise, was employed by municipalities across the U.S. & Canada to regulate & curtail noise-polluting “personal watercraft.” komanoff.net/jet_skis/ 2/n
