      abstract = {Aircraft hangars play a vital role in aviation training institutions by providing secure environments for aircraft maintenance and storage. At the Philippine State College of Aeronautics (PhilSCA), which operates across four campuses?Basa, Villamor, Fernando, and Mactan?ensuring hangar safety is essential to prevent hazards such as fire risks, equipment damage, and personnel injury. This study investigates the safety management practices in PhilSCA?s aircraft hangars by evaluating compliance with aviation safety protocols and the effectiveness of safety leadership. A quantitative descriptive research design was used, employing a purposive sampling technique to gather data from 12 safety managers?both current and former?across PhilSCA?s campuses: Basa, Villamor, Fernando, and Mactan. Through the perspectives of both former and current safety managers, the study identifies key safety challenges, assesses management effectiveness in enforcing safety protocols, and provides recommendations for improving risk mitigation strategies. Findings indicate the need for standardized safety training, enhanced risk assessment, and improved management involvement. The results contribute to aviation safety research by providing insights into safety practices in academic aviation settings.},
