SECTION 4
NORMAL PROCEDURES
CESSNA
MODEL R182
We, as pilots, can demonstrate our concern for environmental
improvement, by application of the following suggested procedures, and
thereby tend to build public support for aviation:
1.
Pilots operating aircraft under VFR over outdoor assemblies of
persons, recreational and park areas, and other noise-sensitive
areas should make every effort to fly not less than 2000 feet above
the surface, weather permitting, even though flight at a lower level
may be consistent with the provisions of government regulations.
2. During departure from or approach to an airport, climb after
takeoff and descent for landing should be made so as to avoid
prolonged flight at low altitude near noise-sensitive areas.
NOTE
The above recommended procedures do not apply where
they would conflict with Air Traffic Control clearances or
instructions, or where, in the pilot's judgment, an altitude
of less than 2000 feet is necessary for him to adequately
exercise his duty to see and avoid other aircraft.
The certificated noise level for the Model R182 at 3100 pounds maxi-
mum weight is 70.7 dB(A). No determination has been made by the Federal
Aviation Administration that the noise levels of this airplane are or should
be acceptable or unacceptable for operation at, into, or out of, any airport.
