The US already has a system?
The big airports can provide runway traction reports measured in 'Mu'. These
reports are much more useful than pilot reports.
Yes, our airport can report in mu. I have yet to find the airline pilot
who finds those three numbers useful. They always ask for the standard
braking action report.
