Aspen-Pitkin County Airport's long-established Fly Quiet noise abatement program has evolved into "Fly with Integrity."

Building on its noise-abatement program introduced in 2007, the advisory board at Colorado’s Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (KASE) has released the next phase with a new voluntary program for aircraft operators. Known as the Fly with Integrity Noise Program, this latest evolution is an outshoot of the 2020 ASE Vision Process, which examined how the airport should be modernized to accommodate the Aspen-area’s air service needs and aims to reduce airport-related noise emissions by 30%.

The program will apply to Part 135 and Part 91 operators, as well as airlines, classified according to number of operations. It will use data from a variety of sources—third-party radar data, year-round noise monitoring, and observations from airport and consultant staff, among others.
