Hangar Foam Suppression Test • Flightstar • KCMI

The last step to opening Flightstar's hangar 10 was this foam suppression exercise, which occurred on Dec 2, 2016. Connected to the existing 21,000 sq/ft hangar 3, this total complex now accounts for over 52,000 sq/ft of our available floor space.

Most fire fighting foam is carcinogenic (especially of this age), and they're playing in it like it's bath bubbles. Do we know what type of foam was used?

[@GreenRobotCat6877]

For anyone wondering, "oh the poor cleanup crew!" no need to worry because the foam dissolves into a liquid and they can just scrape it down the drains using a sqweegee pole. Maybe later the government can supply mobine sqweegee vehicles someday!
