its not really that hard to fly a P-38 through a fighter hangar. Offline, it took me about 10 trys to do it.

With the doors open, sure.  With the doors closed, I can't see how there would be enough room.

I fail to see where the problem was to begin with.

  Which plane.  I can't do that in a P38, the wingspan is too great.


Only hanger the P-38 can't fly through is the vehicle hanger.  The fighter and bomber hangers are wide enough for a P-38 to easily fly through.

You used to could get a P-38 through the old vehicle hangars.  Could even get the A-20 through the fighter hangar inverted!  :x

  You opened the hanger doors!!  Thank you, thank you. 

This may not seem like a big deal, but it is a great way to practice.  You really have to have control of the plane to fly through those things.

When the doors were partly closed, i was in an I16, and i had a 190 on my six, went right through the doors while he just crushed into it  :rofl

Brew would go through very easy and I used to take yaks through the old VH.
