What was the height of Béarn's aircraft hangars?
Short answerThe upper hangar was about 6.5 meters high, reduced to about 5 meters forward where aviation accommodation intruded.
NotesBéarn's upper hangar offered about 6.5 meters of height over most of its length. Aviation accommodation reduced the forward section to roughly five meters even though the converted battleship hull offered other usable volume. That local intrusion constrained the part of the hangar intended for fighters. The example shows how crew-space allocation could quietly erode the aviation capacity that defined the ship's purpose.
