The FAA conducted a noise measurement survey of helicopter operations at three different helipads in the Los Angeles metropolitan area during the period of February 10-14, 1983. The purpose was to gather needed information for defining noise problems with in-service helicopter operations in a suburban and urban area. Noise level data were sampled for a variety of helicopters for different operating conditions and land use characteristics. The data collected reflect noise levels at these sites from all local sources of noise during that particular sampling period. These data from helicopter targets of opportunity are termed survey data as opposed to controlled test data in order to reflect the limited control over factors which contribute to the variability of the measured noise level.
