Shaun Fletcher Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 The Picture below is from the Paris Orly scenery being made for FSX. Can anyone tell me what is different about this hanger and why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I think that's so special: Maybe it is for a plane with a very high horizontal stabilizer or a radar dome on it's back (like the Nato Otan 707). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle Posted August 10, 2010 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted August 10, 2010 Think it's a hangar for aircrafts with T-Tail. It's easier to build a hangar like this where you must not open the complete front. But I would say, it is too small for a 707. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Yep I also think the radar dome wouldn't fit through that slot, so my best guess is it's for the horizontal stabilizer, I am just not sure if that is really so special. I also noticed the hangar has two entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I also checked Google Earth and found out that the little road next to the hangar is called "Route de Service Est" and there seems to be some underground construction work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Sud Aviation Caravelle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AngelsAndAirwaves Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 maybe this hangar was for the concorde ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 But the Concorde had no horizontal stabilizer. Maybe they used it for the AOM MD83s or AF B727s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 Sud Aviation Caravelle? We were going for that one too. Age old livery though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta777 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 So is that the correct answer now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam727 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 727s too i think. I have also seen hangers where they build a hole so the tail will stick out into the open, and the rest will be indoors. Quite funny looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 So is that the correct answer now? Hello Delta777, Not absolutely sure if thats right but Mathijs and I both agreed on the Caravelle. One can but wait for the scenery to come out and test one to see if it fits.

One can but wait for the scenery to come out and test one to see if it fits. [innocent whistle]I wouldn't mind if you also came out with the Caravelle... We can do with a bit more 1950/60s (and/or non-Boeing) airliners...[/innocent whistle] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
