Does anybody know of any wind-tunnel tests for analysis of tie-down
behaviour? I tried a google search without much success.


It's amazing that people who spends 10s or 100s of thousands of dollars on a
plane won't spend ~$10.k for a tornado proof, hurricane proof, fire proof
hangar.

Geo,

It is amazing that there is not one single photograph I could find on the
website that shows a real hangar in use with an aircraft. All I could find is
concept drawings - and your word that it's tornado proof. And you're really
surprised people don't spend 10k on it?
