(2) the benefits to general aviation and the need for efficiency in the national air transportation system;
(3) the differences in the nature of operations at airports and the areas immediately surrounding the airports;
(4) international standards and agreements on aircraft noise; and
(5) other factors the Secretary considers necessary.
