At A Glance, Making An Aircraft Quieter
The following represents a rough guide of acoustic treatments that may be used to reduce noise inside a typical light aircraft. The actual results may differ from aircraft to aircraft since this by necessity must be a generalization of typical noise path and vibration common to most light aircraft. Some aircraft may be limited by space, clearances, internal volume and contact with the pilot and passengers that therefore must be taken into account
Always make sure there is adequate air circulation and/or thermal conductance around instruments or any other object that may need cooling. Insulation should NEVER be installed against the recommendation of the manufacturer.
Your first step is to seal or gasket all gaps to prevent DIRECT noise entry into the aircraft, but NEVER prevent the free movement of any aircraft controls or mechanism.
Either click on the aircraft silhouette below, or use the menu to the left to view treatments for specific areas.
