Hangar door accident could have been much worse

                A falling hangar door at the Apalachicola airport just missed crushing an airplane and county officials say it could have done much worse.
The incident happened on December 30th.
Alan Pierce told county commissioners this week that a 3000 pound hangar door on one of the county’s rental hangars came loose after a cable raising the door snapped.
The door crashed to the ground, just missing a private plane that was being taken from the hangar.
No one was injured in the incident.

County officials say they will replace the door with one that does not require cables so this doesn’t happen again.
