An interesting photograph. Given the year, the photo shows the steel framework for the first hangar at Kai Tak that was subsequently erected at the eastern end of the aerodrome. Later, it became known as the 'RAF hangar' after a civilian hangar was erected at the western portion of the airfield. Further notes from IDJ here
