Take‐Off and Landing of the Supersonic Transport: A Paper Presented at the Symposium Held at Southampton University on Noise Problems of the Supersonic Transport

Abstract

The author was asked to prepare this paper for a discussion on take‐off and landing noise problems on the supersonic transport at a Symposium at Southampton University. He was in the fortunate position of being sufficiently detached from direct participation in the project that he did not need to be hampered too much by hard facts—he could hope to keep the interest of his audience by raising general problems and discussing methods of solution without specifying what the actual solutions were going to be. After all there is nothing more inhibiting to a good lunch‐table conversation than the presence of someone who actually knows the answers to the problems under discussion.
