Vulcan Air Base, Hanger, Interior

An inside view of the second furthest hanger, this shot shows the poor condition of the roof. "What roof," you ask? Yeah, well ok. It is amazing to consider that these massive structures were built in a matter of months and enjoyed only a brief five year lifespan before being left by the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. They have been abandoned now for over 50 years

See what these buildings looked like when they were new by visiting The Alberta Aviation Museum or learn more about the BCATP here in Southern Alberta at The Nanton Lancaster Society and Air Museum.
