Lauderdale Airport PLANES DESTROYED Hangar Inferno WW1' i mm The glow was seen 12 miles away by Ron Mewbron, an amateur photographer, at his home in Miramar. "When I got there," said Mewbron, "the hangar and the attached three-story administration building were completely wrapped in flames. "Both of them caved in. The firemen couldn't do anything to save them, but they did prevent the flames from reaching another building about 40 or 50 feet away." The former administration building had been leased for private use after new airport offices were built. Firemen said they were unable to determine immediately what caused the explosion.

Fire destroyed a block-long hangar and the old administration building at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport during the night. A guard said the buildings were swept by flames after an explosion at 11:03 p.m. The hangar was owned by Florida Air-motive a firm which sells, charters and repairs airplanes. A company official said 14 planes, most of them multi-engined, were destroyed with the buildings. Total loss was estimated at more than $1 million.

Churchill Hungerford, a pilot for General Development said a $230,000 DC-3 belonging to his company was in the building when it collapsed. A private jet valued at $300,000 was pulled from the fire after one wing was burned off. 5 vJW y-" 'l Photo By Ron Mewbron Three-Story Structure Is A 3Iass Of Flames As Fire Rages --r'x I A I i Mix -Hi i VI -ji' 14 iV-' ft '-i tm IMII ''tmKm. 111 -n i wmwtw mm -frn njnr-ifi mrmi ia i 1 Firemen Battle To Cheek Flames From Spreading After Long Battle, Firemen Bring Blaze Under Control By THE CANDID CORNER people IN The News CATIMCIIAEL AMP JUsr.lHREE PAYKfeMTS AGO vana, because the State Department refused to grant him a visa to visit George!
