I had a hangar in McAllen, TX (MFE) which was a large 3-sided (open door)
hangar that held probably 6 planes in there arranged every-which-way for
$90/month. Would have to call the FBO or arrive early to have them get my
plane pulled out, which usually meant moving at least one other out of the
way.
I moved to Humboldt, IA (0k7) last year and rented a hangar from the city
for $35/month which had an electric door but I shared it with a Cessna
Cardinal that I would have to move out first to get my plane out. Was
blacktopped in the area for the planes but the rest was a dirt floor for the
city's Christmas decorations, a couple cars and some tractors and a boat in
there too...
6 months ago I moved the plane to Sleepy Eye, MN (Y58) and got a T-hangar
with manual doors and was a 3-place with dirt floor except for cement pads
to park the planes on. I had the middle hangar on the back side (only hangar
that faced the back so I'm not sure how well that taxiway will get plowed in
the winter). There was a trailer and boat in one hangar and a Cherokee in
the other. Cost is $40/month. Problem is that it's 30 mile drive from here
and over 50 miles from work so I haven't flown too much lately. :-(
Just got a call from the airport manager here in St James, MN (JYG) saying
there is an open hangar available for $55/month or $50/month if paid for 6
months. I'm going to try and get into it tomorrow! It's only a couple miles
from here and 'only' 25 miles from work...
I'd like to get hangar space at Fairmont, MN (FRM) and also find a place to
live there too since that's where I'm now working. So far, the hangars are
filled there, but still waiting...
