History
When the Revel & York engineering corporation set about designing its first hangar, the reaction was laughter. The company, known best for expensive and uncomfortable furniture, was entering a field dominated by aerospace giants. The laughter ceased quickly as the Revel & York "deluxe" line of hangars became the de facto spacecraft garage of the wealthy and powerful. The company's cavernous hangars, established on ideal landing spaces through top-dollar land agreements, earned a lasting reputation for excellence and quality.
Revel & York designers work directly with pilots to develop the hangar experience. R&Y is the only company currently constructing modular hangars designed to support merchantman-class spacecraft such as the Constellation and Caterpillar, which locks it into a valuable, if small, segment of the population. Its hangar designs feature interlocking catwalks with motorized lifts that allow pilots to supervise their spacecraft from overhead, and specially designed Greycat PTV buggies for transporting ship crews from module to module, with an emphasis on both usability and enjoyment for elite pilots. While SELF-LAND and competitors provide a place to store a ship, Revel & York aims to provide a place to enjoy it.
