Warbird Information Exchange

Small airports that were started just after WW2 would constuct small T-Hangars that were shipped in kit form to the airport.
I am trying to find construction drawings or an ad in an aviation magazine from that period promoting these. We still have one of these hangars on our local airport that was constructed in 1946.

The original sidewalls and door coverings were of that nasty asbestos and have been replaced by steel some years ago.

These were neat little hangars and had 2 by 4 lumber sawed in half for construction and heavy steel rollers on the doors.
The locals that constructed them are all gone. The roofs were covered with corrugated aluminum from destroyed warbirds.
The all steel "Butler" T-Hangars were constucted here in 1948. These steel hangars are all over Kansas airports and many farm airstrips.

Also still looking for leads on Pilots that may have flown the Twin Beech aircraft for Standard Oil in the Kansas-Oklahoma area in 1946. Our airport here was dedicated in October 1946. We have a photo of a Twin Beech with the Standard Oil Company Logo on the side but can't see any other id marks that flew the governor in for the airport dedication. Most likely a flight crew of former Army Airforce Pilots because they flew the Beech in and out of our small airport with a full load of people. Grass runways with a rough surface.
