This paper includes the results of noise measurements during timber transport by helicopter MI-8 in The High Tatras conditions in 2005. Using this highly efficient timber skidding technology with multiple positive environmental properties causes an unwanted effect - air-traffic noise. The objective of this paper is to quantify the level of noise effect for two correlated groups; noise effecting workers and noise effecting environment. The highest values measured in the worst conditions reached 90-100 dB (A).

Keywords: helicopter; timber skidding; noise; environment; analysis
