	News & Opinion: Hush Job? (Nashville Scene . 10-20-97)
		These particular hush kits had been designed and sold by ABS Partnership, a low-profile, privately held company based in Sparks, Nev. In fact, ABS itself had hired Friedman to double-check the hush kits to make certain they were of top quality and were being installed properly.
		Hush kits are installed on airplanes because airplanes make a lot of noise, especially during takeoff and landing.
		Questions about the hush kits should only be taken seriously, of course, if Friedman's report turns out to be accurate and fair, and if his own credibility is not challenged.

	Economic Strategy Institute - (05/1200 - Prestowitz) COMMENT & ANALYSIS - Flying In The Face Of The Market
		Hush kits, which act as a mufflers to reduce engine noise on older aircrafts, are seen by the EU as an impediment to its strategy.
		Regardless of its intent, however, the outcome of the hush kit ban will be unfortunate: a technology that allows airlines to meet established guidelines is prohibited, and the alternative yields an illegitimate competitive advantage to the home team.
		In addition, hush kit manufacturers will see their sales decrease sharply and their investments in research and development for the next generation of hush kits will be wiped out.

	From a roar to a hush - Music - www.theage.com.au
		Hush: a ridiculous name for a rock band that turned thousands of teenies on to hysterical weeping and screaming and which was once barred from entering a country town by the mayor who did not want them "interfering" with the local girls.
		For any Hush groupies still nursing a hot crush for Lamb, some heartening news: the man has been celibate for 12 years and wants for nothing in his life but a girlfriend.
		Notably, designing embroidery kits and fabric for a thriving Bendigo company, Rajmahal, in which he is in partnership with lifelong friend Louise Howland.

	European Aircraft Noise Fight Revs Up Again
		The draft law was issued by the European Commission in November, hard on the heels of October's International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) accord on aircraft noise in which the European Union agreed to withdraw its controversial ban on "hushkitted" aircraft.
		Hush kits are mufflers that are retrofitted to older aircraft reducing noise and air pollution from outdated engines.
		The Parliament said hush kits do not bring aircraft engines up to European standards, and adopted regulations that would have banned hush kitted aircraft from April 1, 2002.

		By getting the new hush kits, the older planes were classified as Stage 3, but they still were not as quiet as the newer planes.
		The "hush" kits installed in the past five years on older planes to make them quieter are "a poor substitute" for newer engines and only reduce the noise by a fraction, Udall said.
		He added that the airlines have stopped flying routes that avoid population centers in the mountains because the engines with hush kits are now "in compliance" and the old routes to the north and south are deemed no longer necessary by the airlines.

		Friedman's specific objective was to perform a routine audit of the airplane's "hush kits," the devices used to muffle engine noise.
		The document warns of numerous problems that could arise from the hush kits and "affect safety of flight" for the DC-9, one of the most common models flown by commercial airlines (U.S. airlines own almost 600 DC-9s, and it is estimated that at least one-third of them are flying with ABS hush kits).
		Hush kits are installed because airplanes make a lot of noise, especially during takeoff and landing, annoying residents near airports like Minneapolis/St. Paul.

	Planet Ark : U.S. threatens to retaliate against EU aircraft law
		The "hush kits" dispute is one of several between trading giants the United States and the European Union.
		The "hush kits" law would ban the use from April 2002 of non-EU aircraft fitted with noise mufflers that are not already flying in the bloc.
		The EU argues "hush kits" do not reduce noise enough, and merely prolong the life of obsolete, polluting aircraft that should be taken out of service.

		The commenter states that its hush kit schedule will occur prior to the proposed 8,000-flight hour threshold, but may not occur prior to the next engine removal.
		The commenter also states that aligning the compliance time with the hush kit installation will avoid the dual cost of installing the Boeing secondary support kit at the next engine removal at a cost of $10,600 per aircraft, and replacing it within one year as part of the NORDAM hush kit installation.
		The commenters state that this approval indicates that the secondary support that is installed as part of the NORDAM hush kit should provide an acceptable level of safety and meet the intent of the proposed rule.

		That's because all of the nation's airlines were to have their fleets equipped with the quietest engines — or if not, at least retrofitted with "hush kits" meant to make older, noisier engines quieter.
		But as planes with hush kits began flying from DIA using the straight-west departures, DIA has recorded a record number of violations of its noise agreement with Adams County, DIA noise officer Mike McKee said.
		That coincides with the increasing use of western departures by the airplanes with hush kits, McKee said.

		This customer confirmed that the selection of the Really Quiet Hush Kit was based on design merit, and the fact that it would satisfy all their aircraft usability requirements at noise sensitive airports, while at the same time enhancing the market value of the aircraft.
		Without the hush kit our G11 would be severely limited in its flight options, so we were looking at ways to meet the restrictions and avoid the depreciating impact these restrictions will have on the resale values of the G11 and G111” said Tom Mikrut, Vice President of JMF Enterprises.
		While in the take-off and approach configuration (ejector aft), the hush kit forces exhaust through a uniquely designed nozzle into an ejector shroud that ultimately reduces exhaust velocity, hence noise values.

	Certified GII/III hush kits finally near end of tunnel: AINonline
		While three companies are competing to market FAR Part 36 Stage 3 hush kits for the Gulfstream II, IIB and III, two—Really Quiet and Stage III Technologies—have been developing their respective systems much longer than either originally planned.
		The kit provides a “cumulative noise level six to seven decibels below Stage 3,” according to Hewitt, who also claims that the sound reduction is evident enough that the difference between the hush-kitted Gulfstream vs a non-kitted Gulfstream can clearly be heard, both in the sky and on the ground.
		QTG claims it has orders for 17 of its hush kit sets “without any real sales or marketing effort.” QTG expects to complete certification flight testing in the first quarter of next year and obtain certification in the second quarter.

		With this, I am surprised that they didn’t replicate the difference between the normal and hushed versions of the engines, mainly being the poor fuel economy that hush-kits produce.
