Arnold AFB utilizes new tool in paving arsenal

Full depth reclamation, FDR, was recently used during a paving project at the parking lot of building 676 at Arnold Air Force Base, headquarters of Arnold Engineering Development Complex. After removing the asphalt, base civil engineers found that there was no subgrade. By using FDR, engineers were able to recycle a full thickness of asphalt pavement and a portion of the underlying materials to create a new, stabilized base layer.

AEDC Spark Tank: New system improves speed, accuracy of regularly-sought Model Shop task

Peyton Teters, an aerospace precision machinist in the Arnold Engineering Development Complex Model and Machine Shop at Arnold Air Force Base, Tenn., demonstrates July 30, 2024, how machinists previously determined whether openings in equipment met the required specifications following boring. Before the acquisition of new boring heads, an indicator had to be placed on the bored equipment and a read-out obtained manually. A proposal to procure upgraded boring heads for the Model Shop was among the projects selected in 2024 to receive innovation grant funding through the AEDC Spark Tank program. The new boring heads include technology that measures bored holes and features built-in digital readouts which allow machinists to quickly see whether a hole meets specifications.

SR-71 pilot and university instructor make a return visit to Arnold AFB

The SR-71 Blackbird had its first flight in 1964 and would fly for the next 25 years, retiring in 1990. Designed by famed American aerospace engineer, Clarence ‘Kelly’ Johnson, and developed by Lockheed’s Skunk Works division, the Blackbird became an icon of the Cold War, flying higher and faster than any other aircraft – a benchmark that remains unbeaten 56 years after its first flight.
