Judging by all the aerial photographs, there appears to be at least two hangars still standing from the early days of Luton.
If my photo posting skills work, there will be two photos below of different eras. The one circled blue is along Percival way and now a vehicle maintenance workshop. Another one is the arched hangar (circled red) opposite the easyJet academy on Prince Way. I've also got earlier pictures from the 30's I think showing the hangars being built.
It's interesting that they are still standing - does anyone know if they were of any significance or were they just plain old hangars?
I don't know who the red circled hangar was built for it was not there in 1946 so I think it was erected in the 50's but it seems to be based on a WW2 blister hangar. Its history seems to be associated with helicopters as tenents include Autair Helicopters, Helicopter Services Ltd, Heletech and Trent Helicopters but not in that order.
The hangar is set to be knocked down within the next 2 years.
I will cover the other hangar in another post
