Taxing into hangar = illegal?

Nothing's illegal if you never get caught.

Use the thrust reversers to increase maneuverability.

I knew a rather well off individual who had his own very nice strip (really long drive way with a vasi) next to his house and his own hangar as well. His aircraft consisted of a Yak 52, a Baron 56TC, and a Stinson 108. The majority of the hangar floor was set up like a giant lazy susan. He would taxi into the hangar, park on the appropriate spot, and give a little throttle to rotate the entire floor to move a different plane into position for the next morning. Pretty slick, I guess. No pulling all the planes out to get to the one you want. Gotta love rich people.

Yah...those kind of places aren't worth having unless you can have a matched set.

I know someone who did.

I'm pretty sure it's illegal to fly through a hangar though.

That's not really much of a hanger, though.

It's more like the Grand Canyon. Upside down.

With a floor.

And really big doors.

I heard that the same guy has a moving runway. It's just a giant treadmill that runs opposite the direction of travel, allowing an airplane to takeoff in exactly the same distance as a regular non-moving runway.

I walk on a parkway, and park in the garage. The driveway is for basketball.

So, if con is the opposite of pro, is the opposite of progress, congress?

I bet avbug uses a tug to pull his car out of the garage to start it.

Oh jeezus, not that can of worms again.

Yeah, you're right. and the lake next to his house, the water is in perpetual motion so you can wakeboard with no boat.

and nice avatar/quote combo, by the way.
