The 92nd Operation Support Squadron airfield systems specialists balance today's readiness with tomorrow's modernization by ensuring all equipment on the airfield is up-to-date and working within specified standards.

Air traffic controllers and pilots depend on them to ensure the systems and equipment are functioning correctly, otherwise the incoming aircraft would have a harder time knowing where to go and wouldn't be able to land safely in inclement weather.
