Default Scionpilot's Hangar (sort of like a playhouse)

I figure since everyone else is starting their own playhouse, I would open up the hangar doors to my playhouse: "The Hangar" at Grand Prairie. Like every good secret installation it is well hiddne from prying eyes. It can almost be considered an Area 51 after 6pm the gate closes and you need a special pass to get in. The airport also has its own branch of the military, The Civil Air Patrol (a branch of the United States Air Force). And last but not least a firestation that is nearby with friendly firefighters that go oh my gosh on their daily laps around the firehouse when they see my car and the other projects going on around my skunkwork facilities

Pic of secret hangar:


Pic of secret operations at forsaid testing facilities:


And here is a pic of a xA in front of a secret aircraft repair facility:


Ok the focus (which I know we wont keep) is to discuss anything going on (much like other playhouses in the lonestar region) but also I will start trying to do some hangar talkin about some of the shows I (scionpilot) have visited. Also this is a place where if people want to come do some work on there Scion they are more than welcome to come and do some "secret" projects; I promise to keep my mouth shut on your secret projects until the forsaid time.

Anyways welcome to the hangar.

Upcoming shows for the xA (and pending trips in the big plane):
2/29 San Antonio
3/4 Palmers Wild to Mild, Mobile AL
3/7-3/10 Naples FL (Big Plane)
3/17 Jay Wolfe Scion, Kansas City MO
3/18 Green Toyota Scion, Springfield IL.
3/25 Tejas Scion, Houston TX

That is all that is in the trip book for now

Hey Mike, we can take pics anytime I am in town, just let me know.

Lupe, the airport pic you brought up unfortunatley isnt the right one. That one is the old Dallas Naval Airstation, that is closed. Although for recent flights near that area, a lot of work has gone into making it ready for airplanes again.

And finally. I jusst got back from import faceoff in San Antonio. There were a lot of different cars, although only 7 scions in the show (1 xA, 5 xB, and one tC). I did see another tC out on the track. There was only one award for Scions, and my little xA didnt get to bring it home, oh well. It was a fun road trip got to meet some San Antone peeps, and got to see my aunt and uncle. Tomorrow I will get around to posting some pics for you all to see.

This week, I will be prepping my xA for a 10 hour journey to the deep south, I will be going to Mobile. Palmers Scion in Mobile will be hosting there 3rd Mild to Wild event. Last time I was there I won the longest distance traveled and some other toys. Note to self, this week go buy some folding chairs.

??? i was supposed to be finding your airport ???

those are from about a year or 2 ago. i just found them on my computer and thought they looked like neat formations of terrain and road.
and the one of the airport just looks exactly like how sim city lays things out.

and the weird sponge bob creepyness was sent to me earlier.
