ARINC DirectSM today announced it has added standardized Airport Noise Abatement Procedures to its product suite for flight planning, through an agreement with FlightRisk® and Whispertrack, LLC.

ARINC Direct becomes the first flight planning service to provide this valuable data as standard information for its operators.

“Before today, our customers were only able to find the correct noise abatement procedures by searching on individual airport websites,” says Gary Gambarani, Director, ARINC Direct. “The airport noise abatement procedures are often difficult to find, and they can appear in many different formats.”

By providing these procedures in its flight planning suite, ARINC Direct minimizes operators’ need to search for the information, and greatly simplifies their planning tasks.

Noise abatement procedures for more than 22 North American airports (including Teterboro, NJ and Oakland and Santa Monica, CA) are now available, with additional airports continuously being added.

Whispertrack provides today’s only centralized and standardized source of noise abatement procedures. Airports use Whispertrack tools to create and manage their individual noise abatement diagrams and procedures.

As the provider of operational risk assessment services for ARINC Direct, FlightRisk facilitates seamless access to these airport procedures by integrating Whispertrack’s WhisperplatesTM into its service. ARINC Direct provides a database connection to import the information into customer flight plans.

“Innovative solutions like this enable ARINC Direct customers to operate more efficiently and effectively, and that makes us a leader in the industry,” added Gambarani.

Whispertrack LLC, a California-based company founded in 2010, provides the only centralized and standardized source of Noise Abatement Procedures. Airports use the Whispertrack NAP Dashboard to create, modify, and manage noise abatement diagrams and procedures. Flight planning providers use database connections to incorporate Whispertrack noise abatement procedures into their flight plans. For more information, visit www.whispertrack.com.
