"textContent": "A method for reducing obstruction compromising operation of at least one sensor having a portion disposed through skin of a vehicle, the portion having a surface offset from the skin, using an apparatus including a member disposed offset from the surface including a first side having an inner surface and an outer surface that opposes the surface of the portion, and a second side having a second side inner surface and a second side outer surface facing exterior of the vehicle, a space disposed between the second side inner surface and the inner surface, a first port and a second port pneumatically connected with the space, at least one of the first port and the second port pneumatically connected with a source of compressed air on the vehicle, and a vent pneumatically connected with at least one of the first port and the second port, the method comprises activating at least one of the first port and the second port allowing compressed air to flow from the source into the space. The outer surface of the second side is deformed to separate obstruction from the outer surface. Air flow is directed adjacent the outer surface.",
