Patent Granted A jet blast deflector (JBD) or blast fence is a safety device that redirects the high energy exhaust from a jet engine to prevent damage and injury. The structure must be strong enough to withstand heat and high speed air streams as well as dust and debris carried by the turbulent air.[1] Without a deflector, jet blast can be dangerous to people, equipment and other aircraft.
