Air spur is a term commonly used in the aviation industry to describe a sudden and powerful gust of wind that can pose a challenge to aircraft during takeoff or landing. This phenomenon is also known by various synonymous terms, such as wind blast, jet blast, or downdraft. Wind blast refers to the forceful wind created by an aircraft's engines during takeoff or landing. Jet blast specifically describes the strong winds produced by jet engines. Downdraft pertains to a sudden downward current of air, often caused by atmospheric conditions like thunderstorms or mountains. All these synonyms exemplify the powerful and potentially hazardous nature of air spurs in aviation operations.
