Abstract
Maintenance of airport runway and taxiway lighting and visual aid systems requires workers to sit or squat on the ground for long periods, sometimes as much as five hours a day, causing pain in their waists and calves. This article describes a device we developed for Mexico's Airports and Auxiliary Services to reduce discomfort for maintenance workers.
