Sorry to hear about this Vic. I'm kinda curious to know why anyone
would keep firearms in their hangar or acft though?

Sounds to me like a gun collector, a hanagr is just as safe as a house
to keep your gun collection I suppose.

Not even close. A hangar is not occupied nearly as often as your house.


That said, there has been a recent discussion about guns and planes.
Basically it boiled down to as I remember 2 groups of people:

1. The people flying in areas where a firearm is necessary for self
preservation in the event of a downing in places where there are big
furry animals who would quite like to eat you (and probably some less
furry animals you'd quite like to eat).
2. The "this is America dammit, it's my constitutional right!" crowd.

Both are good reasons to have a gun in an airplane, but neither are good
reasons to leave a gun in an airplane. That is just dumb.
