In order to resolve the noise impact of civil aircraft, noise certification standards and measurement procedures have been developed by the Committee on Aircraft Noise (CAN) of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). International 'Standards' and 'Recommended Practices' presently in effect for the noise emission of different types of aircraft are contained in Annex 16 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, Volume 1: Aircraft Noise. The latest (1988) edition of ICAO/Annex 16 describes the recommended noise level certification standards and methodologies for subsonic jet airplanes, heavy propeller-driven airplanes, supersonic airplanes, light propeller-driven airplanes, and helicopter. The present report reviews that part of Annex 16 that deals with the noise certification of light propeller-driven airplanes, which are defined as those airplanes having a maximum certificated takeoff mass below 9000 kg.
