Maverick's Pizza Hangar Cleared for Takeout.

Wood-fired pizza baked inside a real 1943 aircraft hangar. Forty-eight-hour dough, an 800°F brick oven where a B-25 used to park, and a dining room under the old wing ribs. Whole pies only — board at Gate 3.

SEC. 03 The hangar

We moved into a hangar. The oven stayed.

In 2016 we signed a lease on a derelict 1943 hangar at Meadowlark Field — corroded doors, pigeon tenants, and a floor stain where a B-25 leaked oil for a decade. Everyone said we were insane. They were probably right.

We spent a year building a brick oven into the old wingshop, plane-spotted our tables from salvage, and put a kitchen where the fuel depot used to be. The dough gets 48 hours of cold fermentation, the tomatoes are San Marzano, the mozzarella is fior di latte — and nothing, absolutely nothing, has ever seen the inside of a freezer here.

Whole pies only. No slices, no substitutions on the classics, noexceptions we'll actually hold. We're mavericks, not monsters.

04.12 — CAPT. R. DELGADOCessna 172 · based at Meadowlark

"Flew in for one pie, taxied home with two. The crust has actual leopard-spotted char, and the hot honey on The Maverick should be illegal in at least three states."

04.27 — F/O M. OKAFOR737 crew · 22-year layover regular

"I've eaten pizza on four continents. The Maverick sits in my top three, and the other two are alleys in Naples. Also the cream soda on tap deserves its own logbook entry."

05.03 — STONE, K.Ultralight · no callsign yet

"Sat under an old wing mount with a Garden pie and watched a Cessna do touch-and-goes all evening. Five stars isn't a real scale, but it's the one we've got."

05.11 — THE HOLLANDSMinivan · two kids, one golden retriever

"Half the family is vegetarian, the other half thinks pineapple is a war crime, and somehow everyone left happy. That's not a pizzeria, that's diplomacy."

Park on the apron, mind the chalk marks, and head for the red flag. The tower is decorative — the pizza is not.
