Jet Blast Barrier

First MD-11 Gets Tested with BDI Deflector

Project Details

Location: Yuma International Airport
Yuma, USA
Owner: Yuma County
Challenges:
  • Thrust rating required extremely heavy-duty structure

BDI’s U14-35 jet blast deflector was used extensively by McDonnell Douglas during the development of the MD-11. Flight tests were conducted primarily at the Yuma International Airport in 1990, and BDI’s deflector was heavily used during this period for engine ground run-ups.
