 Skyryse®, the creator of SkyOS, the world’s first universal operating system for flight, is excited to announce the opening of a new facility at Hawthorne Airport in California. This latest expansion follows closely on the heels of the recent launch of an additional facility in El Segundo, further expanding their presence in Southern California.

The new Hawthorne facility represents a significant milestone in Skyryse’s journey toward the certification of Skyryse One, the company’s flagship aircraft. This site will serve as Skyryse’s Part 145 Installation and Repair Center, playing a crucial role in the ongoing development, installation, and maintenance of Skyryse’s systems.

“Expanding our operations to Hawthorne is a critical step in our mission to make aviation simpler and safer,” said Dr. Mark Groden, CEO of Skyryse. “This new facility will be instrumental in our efforts to certify Skyryse One and bring our transformative technology to the broader aviation industry.”

The Hawthorne site joins Skyryse’s growing campus, which now includes a headquarters and integration facility in El Segundo, CA, and a flight test center located in Camarillo, CA. Together, these facilities position Skyryse at the forefront of aviation innovation, driving the development of technologies that will redefine the future of flight.

New FAA Reauthorization Bill Would Prohibit Removing 100LL From Airports

From AV Web…

“George Braly of General Aviation Modifications Inc., the only U.S. company with an FAA-approved 100-octane fuel, said the bill will “almost certainly stop dead” early efforts to develop an unleaded market in California and other parts of the West. “Our position on the bill is that if it’s adopted into law, it will be impossible for anybody, GAMI or Swift or anybody, to deliver a high-octane unleaded fuel,”

As private jet traffic increases at Van Nuys Airport, locals fume

“I feel like we’re living in a war zone, they come in so incessantly. Coming in, taking off, coming in, taking off. It’s out of control,” says Gutierrez-Hedges.

The school is beneath the flight path from Van Nuys Airport, one of the busiest general aviation airports in the country. …Since the pandemic, it’s gotten busier as more wealthy people pay to avoid the close quarters of commercial air travel. 

But those extra fumes are descending upon the people who live nearby.

“Just this morning, as we’re walking outside to take my kids to school and getting in the car, I was like, ‘Cover your nose! Run to the car! Get in the car! Shut the door!’ I couldn’t breathe because of the jet fumes,” says Guitierrez-Hedges.”

FAA Seeks Input On Why Air Traffic Annoys Neighbors

From Chicago’s Journal & Topics

“The old standard for tracking noise impacts was the Schultz Curve, developed 40 years ago, which tends to consider the irritations from airport noise rise slowly in a shallow curve. It predicted that at 50 DNL hardly anyone was bothered by noise, and by the time noise reached 70 DNL, only 40% of neighbors would be annoyed.”

NASA’s Advanced Air Mobility Mission Researches Noise

NASA’s Advanced Air Mobility mission is developing design tools that manufacturers can use to reduce noise impacts. The Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) project and Revolutionary Vertical Lift Technology project work together to conduct testing with industry partners. The data NASA collects and analyzes from these tests with electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOLs) will ensure that the agency’s aircraft design tools correctly predict noise levels for these types of vehicles. With tools that predict noise correctly, manufacturers can design vehicles for quiet operation in urban and rural areas.

The data will also help define and optimize AAM routes and low-noise flight paths for community needs and assist the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in creating policy. Lessons learned through these tests will inform the FAA’s ongoing work with operations and airspace integration.”

Airport Noise and Its Discontents

By Bloomberg…

“Airport noise is a global issue, though the Netherlands may be a special case given that it’s one of the world’s most densely populated countries. Neighbors of Schiphol have recently found that their years of complaints finally paid off: the airport recently announced a series of measures that it hopes will lead to “quieter, cleaner and better aviation.”

The airport plans to ban private planes and cancel all night flights, moves that it estimates would reduce the number of residents experiencing severe sleep disturbance by 54%.”

Living Near an Airport Affects Your Sleep, New Study Shows

From CNET

While it may be obvious to the people it affects most, research now confirms that living next to an airport can seriously curtail how much sleep you get. 

Researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health and Oregon State University published a study last month linking increased airplane noise with getting fewer than seven hours of sleep a night, the benchmark of a decent night’s rest for most adults. Shorter sleep duration or low-quality sleep over time can lead to a variety of health problems and affect your overall well-being. “
