Solo aircraft movement in the hangar is no longer allowed. Open doors fully, work in pairs.

Background

The likelihood of parking damage from solo aircraft movements has become too high, leading to dangerous situations. Even minor damage can have significant consequences for the airworthiness of our aircraft. To increase safety, a clear set of hangar rules now applies at all times.

Key points

Solo aircraft movements are no longer permitted

Hangar doors must be fully open before moving any aircraft

Be mindful of dust when taxiing away — don't blast it into the hangar

Required actions

Never move an aircraft alone — always with at least 2 people present

Fully open hangar doors before any movement starts

When taxiing away from the hangar, manage propwash to keep dust out
