SoundInitiative -- Sound Initiative's goal is to end the use of stage-1 and stage-2 aircraft weighing less than 75,000 pounds. It is an airport-industry led coalition comprised of government, environmental, and anti-noise proponents. Sound Initiative works to encourage Congress to phase out stage-1 and stage-2 aircraft under 75,000 pounds, just as the requirements found in the 1990 Airport Noise and Capacity Act did for aircraft over 75,000 pounds.
