JHJon's Hangar

Visitor Briefing

How to read the hangar.

Jon's Hangar is built around aircraft, not a timeline. Start with an airplane, follow the work into the specialist rooms, and use Rabbit Holes when you want the reasoning behind a decision rather than only the result.

The Rabbit Hole

Go deeper only when you want the whole trail.

The Rabbit Hole marks the optional layer where alternatives, calculations, failed ideas and supporting evidence live without slowing the main aircraft story.

Three ways in

Aircraft. Work. Evidence.

The same project can be read casually or deeply without forcing every visitor through the same technical path.

Aircraft Bays

The main story: what the airplane is, why it matters, what has been restored or built, and what remains unresolved.

Start with the aircraft →

Specialist Rooms

Workshop methods, electronics, printed parts, plans and field testing are separated so the aircraft page can stay readable.

Rabbit Hole

The optional “Go Deeper” layer for alternatives, calculations, dead ends, tests and the reasons a decision changed.

Project status

See what is finished, underway and still being decided.

Clear status labels make it easy to distinguish factory specifications, restoration decisions and hardware that has been installed or flown.

Factory ReferenceSpecifications and guidance from manuals, plans and manufacturer data.
Project DecisionChoices made for a restoration, build or modification.
Installed / As FlownThe aircraft's documented physical and operational configuration.

Follow the work

Every project moves through recognizable stages.

Design ideas become parts, installations and eventually flying experience. The stage labels show where each piece of work stands today.
