Default Turbine noise testing

Our club recently received a noise complaint (that may not have been caused by a model) and there has been a knee jerk reaction to initiate noise testing.

I have looked at the BMFA rules and they have no limits for gas turbines. I can't find anything from the SAA and the IJMC rules appear to have been removed.

There are a couple of previous threads on this but they are a little old. I am quite happy to tell the club that the rules to not apply to gas turbines but would like to suggest some form of test to soften the blow.

Does anyone else here have to undergo any form of noise test for their model? How do you do it?

Thanks
