This curved 4.2-meter (14-foot) tall deflector protects roadways and buildings from jet blast produced by taxiing aircraft. Provided for aircraft arriving to the terminal gate, as well as aircraft that are pushed back from the gate, this blast deflector is highly effective in deflecting breakaway jet exhaust and, therefore, providing more usable space at this busy airport.
