Aerospace industry had the knowledge to build quieter aircraft and "it is time to apply it," M. Carl Haddon, Lockheed Aircraft Corp. executive, said at AIAA meeting in Washington, D.C. ". . . we have reached a turning point beyond which we as designers and managers must see to it that no plane is designed and built that is not significantly quieter than existing aircraft."
