Transport Canada has approved an acoustic soundproofing kit developed by aircraft interior specialist Skandia for Bombardier Challenger 600-series business jets. The regulatory nod announced on Tuesday at NBAA-BACE matches existing FAA and EASA permissions achieved four years ago by the Illinois-based company.

According to Skandia, the soundproofing kit, which it engineered and tested in-house, can lower cabin noise by an average of 3.1 dB. The company said this roughly halves cabin sound energy from the forward to the aft portion of the cabin, with minimal added weight.
