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
BDIās 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. BDIās solution is based on a standard C-130 run-up deflector, but simply provided in a shorter length.
