mph] and not endanger personnel. Velocities of 48 km/h [30 mph] to 56 km/h [35 mph] can occur over
490 meters [1,600 feet] to the rear of certain aircraft with their engines operating at takeoff thrust.
However, these velocities decrease rapidly with distance behind the jet engine.
A8.5.2. Taxiing Aircraft. The distance from the rear of the aircraft engine to the wingtip of other
aircraft will be:
A8.5.2.1. A distance such that jet blast temperature will not exceed 38 C [100 F];
A8.5.2.2. A distance such that jet blast velocity will not exceed 56 km/h [35 mph].
