A flash fire in the hangar at Berry Aviation in Austin, Texas, on the morning of June 27 destroyed a 30-passenger Dornier 328-100 turboprop that was undergoing an extensive interior refurbishment. The company is investigating the cause of the sudden fire.

A spokesman for Berry Aviation said the airplane had been stripped of its old interior and a worker was using a variety of chemical products to remove sealants and other materials. James Hobizal, director of safety for Berry, said fans had been placed at both ends of the cabin to provide ventilation.
