A BE400 PLT ON AN SMO NOISE ABATEMENT CLB DEP COMMENTS ABOUT HIS EXCESSIVE PWR REDUCTION BECAUSE OF FEAR OF FINANCIAL PUNISHMENT FOR EXCESSIVE NOISE.

Narrative

AFTER TKOF; I RETRACTED THE GEAR AND RAISED THE FLAPS. IN AN EFFORT TO COMPLY WITH THE NOISE RESTRS AT SMO; I REDUCED THE THRUST; HOWEVER; MY PWR REDUCTION WAS APPARENTLY EXCESSIVE AS THE ACFT STOPPED ACCELERATING; SO I LOWERED THE NOSE TO AVOID A STALL. AS WE CONTINUED THE DEP; THE FO FOR THE FLT STATED WE SHOULD CLB AT A HIGHER RATE. AS I STARTED TO RAISE THE NOSE OF THE ACFT; TWR CALLED AND REQUESTED I CLB. AT THAT TIME; I HAD INCREASED THE THRUST. AT NO TIME DID WE DSND AND NO WARNING FROM THE TERRAIN AVOIDANCE TO ADVISE A DSCNT. THE VVI WAS ALWAYS POSITIVE ALSO. IN THE FUTURE; I WILL MAKE A SMALLER PWR REDUCTION AND LEAVE THE FLAPS DOWN LONGER. I FELT A GREAT PRESSURE TO REDUCE PWR TO AVOID NOISE PROBS BECAUSE OF THE THREAT OF A LARGE FINE OR THE COMPANY BEING BARRED FROM THE ARPT. THIS PRESSURE CONTRIBUTED TO MY EXCESSIVE PWR REDUCTION. I WOULD SUGGEST MORE LENIENT CONSIDERATION WOULD AVOID A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS PROC. BY THE WAY; WE DID NOT EXCEED THE NOISE LIMITS. I CALLED THE NOISE CTL OFFICE. THEY RPTED AN 89.6 LEVEL -- 95 IS AN ACCEPTABLE LIMIT.
