Is the thread in question.  I really shouldn't say anything beyond
"traffic analysis".

Heh!  "Traffic analysis"....Nice way to put it.  It pays to read
things carefully.

I doubt I ever said I know what is in the new hangar. Mostly because I
don't know. I had guessed that it might be a building to hold multiple
UAVs, but the taxiway markings make me believe that is not true.

Yes, almost certainly a single, large aircraft.  Single taxi
guideline.   Know anything about modern fire station design?  These
days, if the real estate is available, new fire stations are designed
so that the apparatus can leave the station, in a forward manner,
right on to the street.  This lowers their response time.  To allow
for this, the design layout usually provides for rear doors to the
station, so that the apparatus can pull into the bay from a rear
driveway, thus leaving them pointed out, ready for a run.

Applying this concept to the new hangar suggests  a "rapid response"
sort of aircraft.  One that, for unknown reasons, needs to be out of
the hangar and into the air quickly (OMFG, it's Aurora!!!).  Then,
after it returns, it taxis around back of the hangar and pulls in in a
forward manner, ready to go again.  They paid a lot of money to pave
out the side and rear of the hangar, plus the additional doors,
instead of just pulling the aircraft in or out like in all the other
hangars out there.  Engineers, unlike artists, are simple creatures.
They have a reason for everything they do.

I wonder why the building was designed to be parallel to the runway.
It does give those guys in the offices a nice view of the plane on the
runway. This is assuming they will takeoff on 12 and not 14. This
implies a powerful plane since the runway for 12 is shorter.
