This report provides information on various approaches which could be undertaken to accelerate the acquisition of quieter aircraft by operators of the Nation's commercial aircraft fleets. The approaches discussed include both economic incentives and regulatory actions which would encourage or require replacement of noisier Stage 2 aircraft with quieter, more modern Stage 3 airplanes. Actions requiring legislation or rulemaking or both have been considered. This report was prepared following a public hearing held by the Federal Aviation Administration on December 10, 1985. The report takes into account oral and written comments presented at that hearing, as well as written comments which were submitted to the FAA through February 1, 1986.
