A brief introduction of the Boeing commercial airliner family is followed by a discussion of the significant noise reduction accomplishments for turbine-powered aircraft from the 1950's to the 1980's, with projections of further benefits until the year 2000. Definition of the trades to be made between noise reduction and fuel economy, as well as technical problems yet unsolved, lead to a recognition that the greatest advances in aircraft noise reduction are past, and that significant research will be required in the future to lower noise floors that are presently inhibiting further progress. Emphasis is given to precautions that must be taken in the selection of meaningful fleet noise data to avoid costly and irreversible errors in airport and community planning.
