KY ANG T-56 Jet Blast Deflector

New T-56 Engine Test Stand with BDI JBD Unveiled in Louisville

Project Details

Location: Louisville International Airport
Kentucky, USA
Project: KY ANG Engine Test Stand
Contractor: Roederer Construction Inc.
Owner: Kentucky Air National Guard
Challenges:
  • Thrust rating required extremely heavy-duty structure
  • Tight conformance to applicable regulations

BDI’s extensive experience with the T-56 engine used on C-130 aircraft proved to be particularly helpful on this project in which the Kentucky ANG required a jet blast deflector suitable for use behind a T-56 engine test stand. BDI’s solution is based on a standard C-130 run-up deflector, but simply provided in a shorter length.
