Beautiful collection! But I look at that and the first thing that comes to mind is that I hope he has a good fire suppression system in the hangar.

My first thought was that I would not want all that precious metal in one hanger. I guess its all my years working in insurance claims :lol:

Can't tell which hangar it is from inside, but I can tell you it is not the secret owners underground bunker at Boerne Stage.

The funny thing is that wherever I go in the world and whoever's collection I look at, and whatever nice toys they have in their hangar (and this has become something of a standing joke with a friend of mine), the aeroplane nearest the door is almost always a rag-wing Piper product.
