🇬🇧🇨🇳 hangar - 机库 : English Lesson
noun
Meaning of "hangar" ("机库"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.
A hangar is a huge garage for airplanes, where they sleep, get cleaned, get fixed, and wait until it’s time to fly again.
I asked if the hangar had a fridge for airplane snacks, and the pilot said, "Yes, it’s called the fuel tank."
Inside the hangar, the mechanic told the plane, "Hold still," like he was giving a wiggly kid a haircut.
The hangar was so empty that a lonely helicopter started spinning its blades just to hear some noise.
The hangar smelled like fuel, rubber, and the faint scent of pilot coffee from three days ago.
Some real airport hangars are so huge they can hold more than 20 airplanes at once—like a giant sleepover for flying machines.
At dawn the pilot pushed the plane into the hangar, then locked the hangar door. Inside the hangar a young mechanic wiped oil from the wing. He rolled a lamp toward the hangar corner and listened as rain hit the hangar roof. They shut the hangar and smiled, safe together.
