Project Details
Location: Los Angeles International Airport
Los Angeles, USA
Project: Fabricate & Install Jet Blast Deflector
Owner: FedEx
Challenges:
- Thrust rating required extremely heavy-duty structure
- Tight conformance to applicable regulations
FedEx required a new jet blast deflector for their maintenance base at LAX. BDI’s solution takes the standard deflector design for MD-11/DC-10 aircraft and incorporates a few aerodynamic upgrades. This installation includes a tall section in the center section that has a height of 35ā (10.6m) and length of 60ā (18.m).
