Description

This video documents the testing of temporary rumble strips at the Purdue University Airport (KLAF) to assess their stability in the presence of high speed air passing over them. This test was conducted using  an International 4800 equipped with a Sweepster 3000 Series Windrow Sweeper that can produce ~300 mph wind speed, similar to that of jet engines.
