We have discussed hangar construction several times in the past over here. However at Nieuwmunster aerodrome and also on the one at Gistel there were a number of special constructions. I have posted them on my photoalbums site. The link is below, go to Album 10, last three photo's on page 1.
I've only seen the one that looks like the Zeppelin hangar construction at Nieuwmunster and the other one has also a smaller type brother at Gistel in the West-Flanders area.
Does anyone know who constructed them ? And why they were made in this form that was not repeated afterwards in the war for planes to my humble knowledge ?
