Small aircraft exhaust silencer manufacturers?
Hello all, I'm trying to find manufacturers of exhaust silencers for
typical Continental and Lycoming small-aircraft engines. I know of Gomolzig, are there others? I'm looking for officially approved silencers, preferrably such that they can be installed to the original exhaust manifold. S. |

If your certification rules are like US rules, you will have to have a STC for the plane and the engine. Do you HAVE to have one? |

Yes, certainly, but I'd expect any serious silencer manufacturer to have taken care of that. Now I've found Liese in addition to Gomolzig. Both are in Germany (the noise limits there are very strict). S. |

If so, that is pure chaos! Nope, the standards are the same in all Germany. You can fly a run-of-the-mill small aircraft to Germany, but if it doesn't meet the noise standards you'll pay more in landing fees. |

There are "noise classes", and each aircraft has a noise certificate which states in which class it is. When landing, you pay a landing fee and a noise surcharge, the latter depending on the noise class stated in that certificate. (Easier spoken, the landing fee depends on the noise.) There are some airports which are forbidden for the noisier planes, this is stated in the AIP. Stefan |

In the US they are some of the most obnoxious people you can ever meet. |
