This clearly shows that the SSTIK procedure is worse for Brisbane than the procedure it replaces, SEPDY.
However was this Monday a worse day than normal or a typical day? We need further results to determine. Perhaps we need to analyze every day from 1/12/2015 to present.
I am absolutely certain that the FAA and SFO are looking at these noise events and seeing what they can do to reduce the noise impacts in Brisbane.
However no matter what they do, the only way to reduce noise in Brisbane is for the planes' path to be further away. Having the planes fly higher does not work. The planes are unable to climb fast enough to make a difference by the time they come over Brisbane. Even planes at 8,000 feet from Oakland create noise events over 65db in Brisbane.
Can we believe that SSTIK is better for Brisbane than the SEPDY procedure? The answer has to be NO. Well what about the noise from flying the SSTIK procedure? Is SSTIK formalizing the vectoring (abuse)? I use abuse carefully as there is a mountain of evidence that the majority of the SFO planes were turned early (vector)when there was no Oakland plane taking off or even on the Oakland runway.
