I stand by the quote
Unless you want a thread devoted to east/west picking apart each others a/c?
This fourm is like the the terminal with people looking in, posting such information here is like walking out to an a/c with a cup of coffee in your hand.

Timco over at Goodyear (GYR) has a fire right now in one of the hangars. The PHX FD just called a 2nd alarm. The fire is inside the outer wall of the hangar. They report said there was a jet inside, and there was concern about loosing it, but the hangar doors were closed. This was just reported at 17:50 MST today
