I am informed that the noise produced by Boeing 747 aircraft—Jumbo Jets—is no greater than that produced by existing jet aircraft such as the Boeing 707. When using Dublin Airport the 747's will be subject to the same operational procedures as other jets and no additional noise problems should arise.
