Anyone know (Environmental) Acoustics? - Toyota Yaris Forums

If the cars aren't blowing more than 92 db there isn't much more you can do. Berms could help but sound waves like to skip so being under 8 ft tall they may be ineffective.
Being that its an airport why are the noise complaints falling on the autox cars rather than the airplanes? A small cessna will blow over 100 db so I don't see a car being under the legal sound limit being a problem. It sounds like the homeowners are trying to improve their property value by pushing to have an airport close...but that's just my theory.
