Inflatable Maintenance Hangar

When your aircraft has been damaged by a bird-strike, lightning-strike or a collision on the apron, it can take a considerable amount of time to source an available hangar to undertake the necessary repairs. The Inflatable Mainenance Hangar shelter system provides the ideal solution for such events. This “hangar-in-a-bag” system reduces downtime to a minimum and saves time and money on hangar space rental and towing charges. The Inflatable Mainenance Hangar may be used for multiple purposes including scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, engine or landing gear replacement.

 

The shelter is small enough to ship as part of the fly-away kit. It is inflated by following the simple installation instructions provided. Inflation takes less than one hour with a crew of about 6 people. The Iinflatable Mainenance Hangar has plenty of space internally for scaffolding, scissors-lift or boom-lift and is supplied complete with heating and filtration ducts.
