    U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Christian Tatum, 6th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chief, makes an adjustment on a centering cylinder of a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft assigned to the 6th Air Refueling Wing at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, Dec. 13, 2022. MacDill is one of two current test sites for a new centering cylinder on the KC-135, 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 to salt water. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Joshua Hastings)
