I never dug deep to find out why. I can only suppose they didn't
want to lose an airplane AND a building.
That's the rule here, too. We can have it parked right in front of
the hangar but no part of the airplane can be across the door
threshold. I assume it is for the reason you state.
Our FBO routinely fuels owner's aircraft in their hangars. Always
has.
He must be some sort of sky god.
Ten years ago, when we first moved into a hangar, we would return from
a flight, put the plane away, and flip a little red flapper up on the
door. Next time we came to the airport, the flapper was down, the
plane was fully fueled, and we'd get a bill at the end of the month.
God, I miss those days...
I think gas was, like, $1.74 per gallon -- and we bitched about it!
You'd bitch about it if it were free.
