Planes are NOISY! (Duh)
The Noise you hear is a combination of continuous and discontinuous sound sources. The continuous noises are most commonly associate with engine and wind noise The discontinuous noises are all the other activities that happen on a plane to make noise. (especially conversations) Continuous noise is 60-65db pre-flight, 80-85db takeoff, 75-80db cruise and landing Discontinuous noise can go 81-88db (again... because conversations need to take place at a volume louder than continuous noise.) Here's the thing... one of the major sources of discontinuous noise (conversation) can actually be reduced if you reduce the continuous noise.)
But... how do you reduce cont noise?
Well... researchers from North Carolina State University and MIT have created a way to insulate planes that doesn't add that much weight.
More importantly, it's a drum that bounces low-frequency noises.
The researchers found that the simple membrane, deployed this way, can block 100 to 1,000 times more sound energy than a honeycomb lattice without the latex.
AND -- it only adds 6% weight to the honeycomb structure, which is of itself, only a small percentage of the total weight of the aircraft.
Let's talk about Wash lights!
DMX is supposed to use XLR-5, but many units have changed to XLR-3.
