Found this article with info on the fire that destroyed IAR's hangar at Coolidge Municipal last month.  Word from the fly-in is that a golf cart battery caught fire while charging.  None of IAR's aircraft were damanged, but their headquarters and millions of dollars worth of engines, propellers, tools, etc were destroyed.  Looks like they're planning to rebuild on the same spot.
