Norco

Aware of construction and operating costs and a minimized building area, Norco engineers employed efficient form and function to design this door system for the 128th Air Refueling Group ANG, located at Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s Mitchell International Airport.

A 195’ wide by 43’ high Norco Universal Door System, comprised of eight leaves, bi-parting, is utilized in the facility. In addition, a tail door, 20’ wide by 20’ high, will accommodate any future replacement planes.

The floor plan, a virtual DC-10 footprint, met the military’s
parameters, and the end result is a distinctive prototype for future military hangars.
