Summary:1. Field of the Invention An aircraft engine run-up hangar comprises a building defining a test chamber capable of receiving an aircraft therein, an air inlet structure, and an exhaust structure. The air inlet structure is formed in a front end part of a roof structure corresponding to a front end part of the building. The exhaust structure is connected to a rear end part of the building and defines an exhaust passage extending obliquely upward from the back end of the building. A ceiling included in the building has an inclined section sloping down backward to straighten air currents, and a groove is formed in a middle part, with respect to width, of the inclined section to permit a vertical tail fin of an aircraft to pass when the aircraft is carried into or out of the test chamber.
