It departed at 11:52 AM, late as these things usually are! Didn't actually see it, but heard it from inside the orifice.

Was pretty cool to go to the Long Beach airport website and watch the historical noise data from time it took off. Looks like it maxed out the noise sensors on the departure end of the runway. The highest reading that I saw was 123 dB on the sensor right at the departure end of the runway.

Webtrak for the noise sensors at LGB: http://webtrak.bksv.com/lgb

On the lower left side you can look at the "historical data". Put in the date and time (11:52 AM was pretty accurate) and you can see what the traffic was like in the area at the time and what the various noise levels were at each measure point.

I only see the departure end of the diagonal runway (NW side) going up to 90dB. Where and when did you see 123dB?
