Jan.

Jan. 1, 2006, is the date for the implementation of the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO) Chapter 4 noise limits. The latest noise and emissions standards (European terminology uses “Chapter” to correspond with the U.S. term “Stage”) should have no direct immediate effect at all on business aircraft operations, but some ICAO language surrounding the new rules could be indicative of future trends in setting noise and emissions policies worldwide.
