Organisation Statutory forum for engagement on any matter concerning the Gatwick Consultative management of the airport which affects: users, local authorities Committee and other local stakeholders. (GATCOM) Develop, agree, oversee and maintain a coordinated Noise Management noise management vision and strategy on behalf of Board (NMB) stakeholder organisations. The main aim of this work is to reduce the impact of noise on the local community. Discusses a wide range of noise and track-keeping Noise and Track Keeping issues; monitors airspace, complaint handling, Monitoring Advisory noise and track-keeping performance, night engine Group (NATMAG) testing and ground noise complaints. Drives and monitors the NMB actions and NMB NMB Workplan Implementation Workplan activities coordinating activity across various Steering Group stakeholders and fora. 5

Update Reports NMB Progress Report Independent Arrivals Review Final Report • Provides a review of the activity of the Independent Arrivals Review Final Action Plan • Marks the transition from a focus on arrivals to a more holistic and dynamic NMB workplan • Clearly sets out progress on key initiatives and the those that have generated follow-on activities 6

Outcomes Independent Arrivals Review Final Report 7

Technology The next generation of aircraft now entering service will represent a step change in performance The new Airbus “ neos ” are approximately 5dB quieter on departure and 3dB quieter on approach than the older types they typically replace Current A320 (CFM) (black line) vs A320 neo (red line) Sound Exposure Level (SEL) footprint 8

Future Airspace New Airspace Change Process CAP 1616 will offer: • Greater transparency • Early engagement on design principles • Additional stages to make the case for change • Improved standardisation of process and products • Incremental process with sign off at key gates by CAA/SoS To be published soon London Airspace Management Programme Phase 2 will offer: • Increased aircraft safety • Reduced flight time, delay and cancellations • Reduced emissions per flight • Reduced noise impact and • Simpler, more flexible structures better suited to airspace sharing and change 11
