For my students I want to compile a list with useless, but fun aviation
facts like the airport with the shortest runway, the longest, the
shortest commercial flight, the cheapest commercial flight, the oldest
plane still in commercial use etc.

Please contribute!

Hi Magiel,

I am flying a exceptionally quiet helicopter which seems to be the
most silent helicopter made.
Eurocopter EC120. The noise level (overflight at Max. gross weight) is
78.7 dBA.
If somebody has other facts (e.g. helicopters with less noise), please
let me know.
