@RepMikeQuigley I appreciate efforts. Overhauling noise metrics, yes. Doesn't addrss issues for those who can't stay indoors all summer long

@RepMikeQuigley Fly Quiet will be difficult, especially since the parallel runways aren't in line with majority prevailing winds at O'Hare

@RepMikeQuigley I know FAA says that they are prevailing from West. But historically, they are prevailing from SSW http://www.windfinder.com/windstats/windstatistic_chicago-ohare.htm …

@RepMikeQuigley My understanding is that flying crosswind will require variations in flight paths, especially on approach.

@RepMikeQuigley Silent Skies is great, I support upgrades to Stage 4. But doesn't seem to address airframe noise from how planes are flown

@RepMikeQuigley Landing gear dropped early on approach, etc. can create as much noise as the engine.

@RepMikeQuigley Req arrival flights frm east to begin 3 deg descent at lake shoreline would help. Noise Sharing would help (like Heathrow)

@RepMikeQuigley Right now, 3 aircraft arriving parallel w/in 1.5-2 m of each other can have overlapping noise footprints> increases problem

@RepMikeQuigley And releasing noise monitor data to be transparent about real noise events, that would help immensely.
