A noise assessment concludesd that emerging SSTs are likely to fail current (2018) and perhaps even historical (2006) landing and takeoff noise standards. Such standards would allow for increased air pollution, noise, and CO 2 relative to new commercial aircraft. Modeled NO x and CO 2 performance of SST aircraft by configuration.
