Queenstown Airport Corporation chief executive Steve Sanderson said he was happy with how the six-day hearing went.
"We are happy for the hearing to be adjourned until possibly September. There seems to be a general feeling that people would like Queenstown Airport [Corporation] to produce a draft management plan detailing how we do insulation and the like," he said.
The corporation had promised to insulate homes within the extended noise boundaries as the noise levels increased over time.
The 37 homes within the night noise boundary would be insulated first.
"We were happy to have that as a condition of consent but it is clear we need to provide details on how we will do that, before the commissioners can make a decision. We are happy to go away and produce a draft," he said.
The hearing will reconvene for two days in September.
Wakatipu Residents Against Aircraft Noise (WRAAN) member Scot Freeman told the hearing the residents were disappointed the noise management plan was not submitted when the proposal was first lodged and notified.
