Noise
Abatement Procedures:
Effective September 24, 1999
The following
procedures are in effect to promote a good neighbor policy between
the users of the Kenai Municipal Airport and the residents of Kenai.
This program is published as voluntary in nature, however, it is
expected that companies and individual pilots operating at this
facility will make every effort to follow these procedures.
These procedures
are directed at large, heavy and jet aircraft performing training
maneuvers and do not override procedures for aircraft on an IFR
flight plan.
Unless otherwise
instructed by Air Traffic Control, the following voluntary noise
abatement procedures are in effect at Kenai.
- Training
flights for large, heavy and jet aircraft will be prohibited from
2200 Local until 0700 Local.
- At the discretion
of ATC (Air Traffic Control) and when traffic, wind, and other
conditions allow, aircraft will land runway 19R and depart 01L
- These procedures
are written assuming a right traffic pattern on 01L. If conditions
do not allow for this or other noise abatement procedures to be
followed. ATC will restrict aircraft to one operation and request
they depart the airspace until such time as there is a reasonable
expectation that noise abatement procedures can be adhered to.
- Large, heavy
and jet aircraft will strictly comply with the 1600 MSL visual
pattern altitude.
- Visual
patterns using Runway 19R: Aircraft on departure will not
turn crosswind until at least 1000 MSL and 1/2 mile past
the shoreline. A wide pattern will be flown west of the
prison.
- Visual
pattern on Runway 01L. Fly a wider than normal pattern,
remain west of prison. Initiate turn to base 1/2 mile past
the shoreline over the water.
- Large, heavy
and jet aircraft circling from a published approach under VFR
will do so at 1000 AGL or higher. Aircraft will circle west and
initiate circle so as to avoid housing areas west and southwest
of the airport.
- Circle
to Runway 19R: Initiate circle over water at least 1/2 mike
from the shoreline. Fly a wider than normal pattern and
remain west of the prison.
- Circle
to Runway 01L: Fly a wider than normal pattern, remain just
west of the prison. Initiate turn to base at least 1/2 mile
past the shoreline over the water.
- No tactical
(extreme low level) type approaches are permitted on 01L.
- All companies
desiring to conduct training activities involving large, heavy
or jet aircraft at the Kenai Municipal Airport will provide the
Airport Manager with a contact phone number for noise complaints.
It is expected
that all pilots operating at this facility will demonstrate regard
for the neighboring community and conduct their operations accordingly.
