Overlooking the edge of the runway lurks a yellow giant. Giant firetruck. So
large, drivers tried their best to fit in the existing garage by folding in the
truck’s side mirrors. Not the most practical in an emergency. A new garage
bay was added to the north end of the building with a generous 18-foot wide
door. Notice the lights mounted to the lower interior sidewalls, these lights
are positioned to illuminate the side storage compartments.
The
compartment hatch doors open with hinges on the top side of the hatch
doors.
