An aircraft hangar, situated within part of the Museum of Flight.

Pre-war Callendar-Hamilton aircraft hangar. The hangar has the appearance of having been re-clad and now serves as the dislpay area.

The building is visible on RAF WW II vertical air photographs (NLA 68, 3041-3049,4041-4049, flown 26 August 1943), and is one of the original three hangars of this type at East Fortune.
