What's in the AIRLab

This page is used to keep track of all the hardware (oh well, at least of the main gear) that you can find in the various AIRLab sites (a list of which is given in The Labs). The gear is divided into categories, and you must go to the relevant one to know what is available, its main characteristics, and where it is now.

As we are on the topic of "where things are", please keep in mind that other people want to find things as much as you want that, so if you are moving something away from its current location please update the relevant table THIS INSTANT >:-). If you don't know where you are taking it, just put your name in the table, so at least the others will know who to ask (or who to hunt for).

Remember that there are risks associated to the use of some kinds of hardware. They are described, along with the instructions to avoid them, in the Safety norms. You are required to know these norms, and you have full responsibility for anything you do in the AIRLab.
