East Midlands/EGNX maintenance facilities: which is which?
 
Hello,


I'm going through the incident report of G-ODMM, the B734 that lost all its oil after departure and safely landed in Luton, back in 1995. The various documents published about this incident mention two maintenance facilities:
- base maintenance hangar
- line maintenance hangar

I looked at satellite pictures and after several hours of vain research, I still haven't figured out which hangars were involved. If you go to Google Maps you see 5 major structures (2 + 2 + 1) in the maintenance area and I can only suppose that the base maintenance hangar is the biggest one (top left). Could anyone help me figure out which is which?

at the time of the MM incident hangar 29 was the hunting aviation hangar. british midlands hangars were the one at the far end of dakota road (base maintenance) and the right hand one of the 2 hangars due north of the base hangar which was used ad hoc for line maintenance!

BMA B737 incident.
 
I think the A/C involved was G-OBMM CN:-25177. AAIB A.I.R 3196 refers.
