Airplane Hangar Field Module
Airplane Hangar Field Inspection Worksheet
Field worksheet for aircraft hangar occupancy, stored aircraft, tenant arrangements, doors, maintenance, fueling and emergency protection.
Airport / Hangar / Building
Underwriting Focus — Building and airfield exposure
Note proximity to airport operations and the integrity of large hangar doors, which create wind and impact exposures. Distinguish property owner, hangar operator and aircraft owner.
Aircraft / Storage / Occupancy
Underwriting Focus — Values and custody
Record whether aircraft belong to insured or clients; note maximum combined hangar values and access restrictions. Do not assume a hangar renter has legal custody of stored aircraft without confirmation.
Fuel / Maintenance / Environmental
Underwriting Focus — Fire and fuel operations
Document who handles fuel, quantities, emergency shutoff access and spill response. Battery charging and maintenance create additional ignition risks; observe and photograph controls without operating equipment.
Fire / Security / Premises / Losses
Underwriting Focus — Protection adequacy
Hangar fire systems vary by hazard category and building design. Capture the installed system and service tags without making an engineering or NFPA 409 compliance determination.
Photos to Obtain
Required: readable service tags (if applicable), complete condition/context photos for each recommendation. Never photograph identifying clients without permission.
