DHL reduces aircraft noise levels in Riverside, CA

DHL has announced plans to reduce noise impacts on the local community by changing out certain aircraft used during its night-time operations at March Air Reserve Base in Riverside, California.

Working with its contract airlift provider and leaders from the March ARB Joint Powers Commission, DHL will replace one DC-9 aircraft currently in operation with a quieter aircraft in September this year.

The company also continues to work with its airlift providers to potentially remove a second DC-9 from its operation in Riverside, as soon as September.

Red Alexander, DHL Express’ vice president for aviation & commercial transportation, acknowledged that switching aircraft presents considerable operational and financial challenges for the company.

However, in order to enable daytime ground deliveries, overnight delivery service providers must fly at night, so DHL hopes to reduce the impact by using the quietest planes practicable.
