Red Bull Air Race Hangers
Does anyone know who the manufacturer of the red bull air race hangers are? It seems like a nice simple design that obviously can be quickly put up and taken down. Would be a great little hanger for airports that require non permanent structures.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hangers at an airport should be used for aviation use if the airport needs to store their junk they're other places for that. YQT is the most frustrating airport ...

Alternate mins
If approach mins are 375 and 1.5 vis on Rnav. Using 800 and 2 or 300 and 1 whichever is greater. The 300 and 1 gives 700 and 2.5 so do you use 800 and 2 or 800 and 2.5 as alternate mins.
Thanks
