Project Details
Location: Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport
Georgia, USA
Project: New Blast Deflector - Flight Test
Owner: Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation
Challenges:
- Thrust rating required extremely heavy-duty structure
- Tight conformance to applicable regulations
BDI’s deflectors are widely used by Gulfstream at their production facility, test flight facility, and Savannah service center. The standard model for this application is the U19-3, which has a height of 19′ (5.8m) and is capable of effectively capturing and deflecting high-power jet blast from the tail engines of Gulfstream aircraft.
