    A crew chief assigned to the 6th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron rests their hand on a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft tire at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, during a landing gear test Dec. 13, 2022. MacDill is one of two current test sites for a new centering cylinder on the KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft, which is designed to allow aircraft to land safely with more durable components. Air Mobility Command chose MacDill for this project because of the base’s corrosive environment due to its proximity of salt water. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Alexander Cook)
