would like to see some bigger birds here aswell, a Far Eastern or regular Canadian service would be fantastic!!!
This is from the Master Plan:
”Can I expect bigger, noisier aircraft flying
at lower altitudes?
Larger aircraft may become more common during the
Masterplan period. Larger aircraft are not necessarily louder
than smaller aircraft, as new technology is constantly reducing
engine noise. Also, as larger aircraft can accommodate
more passengers, the number of aircraft movements will
rise, but at a lower rate than the rise in passenger numbers.
So, a doubling of passengers will not mean a doubling of
aircraft movements, and an increase in size of aircraft will
not necessarily mean an equal proportional increase in noise.
While Newcastle International is likely to accommodate
larger aircraft, particularly if the runway is extended, it is
unlikely that regular services will ever use the very largest
aircraft available.”
