La famille Oakley en UK, vient d’annoncer une réduction de 13 dbA obtenu sur son dernier aéroglisseur.

Simon Oakley a conçu un analyseur de spectre sonore spécifiquement pour les aéroglisseurs.





"The Quiet One – Q1. The craft is a conventional single fan, single engine, integrated craft with a 35 bhp engine.


Measuring the craft static at full power at7 points in a 25 metre circle around the craft it averages 70dbA at 25 metres, which compares favourably with similar F35 craft which typically average 83dbA on the same test. This is the test specified by the WHF for Endurance Racing. The last time I adjudicated on some ER racing the quietest craft scored 79dba on this test. The reduction of 13dbA is dramatic "
