All of the breakable glass is gone (save for towards the ceiling) in the window separating the two rooms, and it isn't snowing outside.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X[]
A ceiling was added in this game, along with improved snow effects. Behind the starting rollin a new control tower can be found. If the player jumps out the windows of the control tower they can make their way down to the area that is normally opened by grinding the blades of the helicopter that holds the secret tape.
Tony Hawk's Underground[]
This version of the level is an unusual mix of original lower poly mesh and THPS2x textures. Also it is significantly darker than the original.
Origin[]
The Hangar is set in "Mullet Falls, Montana", which is a fictional location, known to be the reference to Neversoft's president Joel Jewett's hair style at the time of the game's development and release. Despite the level itself not revealing any real world location and being designed like a training level (much like Warehouse from the previous game), the level preview indicates that the level draws inspiration from the Hangar 9 WWI memorial located in Brooks, Texas.
It's possible the overall level theme is based on aircraft museums in the area (this includes a plane, a helicopter and various banners, referencing US air forces). GBA version relocated it to Meacham Field, Texas, which is the name of an airport located in Fort Worth, Texas.
Trivia[]
- Just like in Warehouse, the ceiling fades to pitch black in this level. The Windows version of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 reveals that the original model lacks any roof. It's notable during the helicopter lift-off sequence, since roof debris appears in the void.
- A ceiling was added in later games starting with Pro Skater 2X.
- Wolves can be heard howling outside.
- Snow is represented by just a few polygons and a scrolling texture in the PlayStation version. This is improved in later games.
- The level will often glitch to hide specific areas if the player crosses the middle wall in certain ways.
- With a ramp that goes down into the level and a halfpipe you can jump across, this level is similar to the Warehouse.
- In Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X, Officer Dick can be seen making an appearance standing inside a small room operating the Wind Tunnel. This room can be stalled on to get a better view.
- In the GBA version, the way to access the Secret Tape was changed quite significantly. It is still behind the door that would lead to the outdoor helipad, but the Wind Tunnel area actually replaces it, and you open it like you would the Wind Tunnel normally. It is above the transfer where you enter the tunnel.
- The Control room from THPS2x did not appear in THUG, but still returned in THPSHD.
- In Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, there is a homage to Neversoft and the Tony Hawk games developed by them in form of huge banners for every title. Bam Margera was noticeably removed from Underground 2 banner. This was possibly due to royalty issues or Bam's personal issues at the time of the game's release.
- In Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X the plane outside appears to be based off a Delta McDonnell Douglas DC-9, while in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD, its based off a Boeing 747. No planes are found outside in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Tony Hawk's Underground, or Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2.
- The fighter jet in the middle of the level is likely based off a Vought F4U Corsair model.
Early content[]
- In the early beta, Hangar was located in Tajikistan.
- During development, it was planned to implement a secret control tower where random dispatcher chatter would be played just like later in THPS3 in Airport and Cruise Ship levels. It was possibly meant to be the room above the current helipad as can be seen in the E3 Demo. The other PC demo version of the game contained recorded audio files, but they did not make it to the final game. However, the Control Tower itself was moved to the starting point and appeared in THPS2X.
- The wind tunnel propeller was originally meant to kill the player; this was removed from the game due to likely causing a higher age rating.
