Rome Alcantara, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, airfield manager, drives a pick-up truck with a runway friction device attached to the back, Jan. 23, 2023. The device is a tire with a computer that measures the distance it takes to stop. That information is then uploaded to a website where pilots can see what time the test was done and if surface conditions are good. (U.S. Air Force photo by Matthew Clouse)
