U.S. Air Force Senior Airman John Blas, 6th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chief, grabs a tool to perform maintenance on a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft assigned to the 6th Air Refueling Wing at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, Dec. 13, 2022. The 6th Maintenance Group is working to improve the KC-135 landing gear’s sustainability by installing new hydraulic components. Air Mobility Command chose MacDill as a location for this project because of the base’s corrosive environment due to its proximity to salt water.
