What is NoiseQuest?

NoiseQuest is your source for information on aviation and airport noise. Our goal is to improve the relationship between airports and their surrounding communities. Where Does the information on NoiseQuest come from? Government documents News articles Research journals Aviation practices Mission statement This website was developed to provide educational information on aviation noise. The initial site development was supported by the Federal Aviation Administration through the PARTNER Center of Excellence under grants to researchers at The Pennsylvania State University and Purdue University. The ongoing development and enhancement of the NoiseQuest site is supported by the Federal Aviation Administration through the ASCENT Center of Excellence under grants to researchers at The Pennsylvania State University.

FAA Website What is NextGen?

What is NextGen? NextGen is the FAA-led modernization of our nation’s air transportation system. Its goal is to increase the safety, efficiency, capacity, predictability, and resiliency of American aviation. This overhaul brings together innovative technologies, capabilities, and procedures that improve how we fly from departure to arrival. Airlines,  general aviation  operators, pilots, and  air traffic controllers gain better information and tools that help passengers and cargo arrive at their destinations more quickly, while aircraft consume less fuel and produce fewer  emissions . This transformation is being achieved through an ongoing rollout of improvements which began in 2007. NextGen remains on target to have all major components in place by 2025. The modernization of the National Airspace System is one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in U.S. history. https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/what_is_nextgen/ ---------------------------...

The noise from overhead aircraft is constant on most days

The FAA direct over Accokeek approximately 70,000 aircraft a year using the north flow arrivals, approximately 200 airplanes a day. Most aircraft fly at an altitude of fewer than 2,500 feet over Accokeek. There is a waypoint at Bryan Road a few miles from the Prince George’s county line. Aircraft arrive at this waypoint no lower than 4,000 feet and turn into Accokeek and descend to approximately 2,500 feet. Some turn and follow the river to DCA; some go south through Bensville to La Plata. The aircraft make you turn and come back up through Bennsville and continue through Accokeek. Research indicates this emission from aircraft jet engines travels as far as 10 miles in every direction. I will provide evidence for this statement in my next post. Take a look at this Web Site (The Laboratory for Aviation and the Environment is a research lab in the MIT Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics). If you follow the link, you will see several articles discussing how aircraft emission ...

South Side Project

 Southside Express Lanes (South Side project) Virginia VDOT wants to add two new high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes in each direction along an 11-mile stretch of I-495 between I-395 in Fairfax County and Maryland Route 210 in Prince George’s County, crossing the Woodrow Wilson Bridge – Greater greater Washington, Spending money to go nowhere: Southside Express Lanes should be a Metro extension,  David Edmondson (Contributor) August 20, 2025  I am against the "Southside Project," I live in Accokeek, Maryland. My home is 17 miles south on Indian Head Highway (210). I have lived in Accokeek, Maryland, since 2003. I am now retired. Before I retired, I worked in Fairfax Virginia, and commuted from Accokeek to Fairfax five days a week. I have spent a lot of time on Indian Head Highway and the beltway trying to get to work. I have come to know the traffic patterns well.  “You don’t have to be a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing.” I don’t have to be a traffic exp...

Energy Resilient:

What it Means to be Energy Resilient: Preparing for and Bouncing Back from Power Disruptions Energy resilience is the ability to anticipate, prepare for, and adapt to energy disruptions, as well as the capacity to rapidly recover from them. In an era of increasing extreme weather events, cybersecurity threats, and an aging electrical grid, the concept has become a critical priority for communities, businesses, and governments worldwide. It's about ensuring a reliable and continuous supply of energy to power our essential services and daily lives, even when the unexpected happens. While often used interchangeably, energy resilience is distinct from energy reliability. Reliability refers to the day-to-day consistency of the power supply under normal conditions—preventing routine outages. Resilience, on the other hand, is about withstanding and recovering from major, often unforeseen, events like hurricanes, wildfires, cyberattacks, or physical attacks on infrastructure.
