I got my first violation the other week. Thankfully it wasn't an FAA violation, it was a noise violation. We departed TEB at 10:19pm and tripped the monitor, came in at 1.1db over the limit, yep 1.1db. There is no fine or action taken, but 3 strikes and you're out, persona non grada (sp) at TEB. It's a catch 22, ATC assigns you the departure runway and procedure, they don't care about noise ordanances, only moving traffic and not conflicting with EWR pattern. The departure procedure sets you up for failure, what you're suppose to do is reduce power after lift off ... excuse me but I like my energy working for me untill I get to safe single engine altitude, ie: circling mins.
Well tommorrow I get to try another noise sensative airport with a 06:00am arrival into VNY, I only wish I had afterburners, VIOLATE THIS ARSEHOLES!!!
This plays directly into the SDL debate about who should have preference the airport, which was there long before the housing developments, or the safety and good operational practices of pilots. Is this stupid or what?
