World's biggest hangars

As you'd expect, the most important aircraft within the world need the largest hangars to stay them out of the weather during inspection and maintenance. in an exceedinglyll|one amongst|one in every of} the most important hangars in a commercial airport belongs to the Dubai Royal Airwing.

It has space for eight planes, including three Airbus A380s, with doors that are over 580 metres (1,903 feet) wide. the most important building for single aeroplane, though, is that the one-hectare (2.4 acre) Stratolaunch hangar in Mojave, CA.

Once you include airships, the sizes jump high. The Cardington airsheds in Bedfordshire, used for Airlander, for example, are 1.4 hectares (3.4 acres) each, while Hangar One at the US Naval base of operations in Sunnyvale, CA, covers 3.2 hectares (eight acres).

The biggest of all isn't a hangar to any extent further. it had been built for the abandoned CargoLifter CL160 airship and you'll park the Eiffel Tower on its side within it. it's been changed into a vacation resort.
