The
Advanced Landing Dynamics
Facility or ALDF has been
in operation since the
1960's. Besides developing
grooved pavement for safer
highways, ALDF tests aircraft
wheels, tires, and advanced
landing systems. Research
gathered at ALDF helps
develop safer roads, tires,
runways, and pedestrian
walkways. Paula Vaiden
spoke with Bob Daughtery
of NASA Langley Research
Center to find out more.
