Research has shown that noise affects the nervous system, and can cause tiredness, poor concentration, irritability and tension. Of even greater concern is the permanent damage to hearing that can result from noise at high levels. This problem concerns pilots in particular. Cockpit noise amounts to about 80 dB(A) in jets and to 90 up to 97 dB(A) in turboprops.
