Well they got a real good test out of that system didn't they. I wonder how long it took to fill the hanger.

looks like it would make a great wash rack.  Just think of the time savings, a squadron could pull all its vehicles in the hanger and activate the foam/soap.  then drive them out and the waiting water pumpers hose them down...then have have a couple of B-1s waiting to blast them dry with jet exhaust :lol

That happened at Allegheny County Airport (AGC) not long ago.  Maybe 3 weeks ago.  Twas a power surge fried something somewhere somehow.  All the hangars were without power :(

That hangar is on a part of the field that is off and away from pretty much everything.

Lucky for them at the time AGC's main runway (10/28) was closed for resurfacing.  13/31 is only 3600' so most of the airplanes were moved over to PIT.  The G-5s and Global Expresses stayed.  We'd come in the Citations if it was dry.  That's it...twas a slow time.  If it was "normal" then that hangar would probably have around $100,000,000 in it.
