Description
This black-and-white overhead photograph shows the interior of the large General Motors Holden (GMH) Allison Overhaul Assembly Plant hangar, or 'igloo', as it was nicknamed. The hangar, located at Albion in Brisbane, Queensland, was used for the US Army 81st Air Depot Group during the Second World War. It is partitioned into open cubicles with men and women working at benches on various tasks along its considerable length. Exposed internal nailed wooden roof trusses arc across under the corrugated iron roof.
