Selling my airplane

We pay $112 per month for ours. Includes electricity. Go 50 miles

I can't for the life of me figure out what you guys see in the
coasts...

There is no excuse for hangars costing what they do around Mobile; it's got a
cost of living lower than Dubuque, IA.

There is, however, a *reason* hangars cost so much he monopoly. One
company, with a suspiciously cozy relationship to the Mobile Airport
Authority, has controlled all the hangars and tiedowns at both municipal
airports for years. No new light aircraft hangars or shelters have been built
in decades. The ones destroyed by Hurricanes Ivan and Katrina were not
replaced. The company simply raised the rates on the surviving ones while
continuing to do zero maintenance. The roofs leak, debris litters the ramps,
weeds grow tall from the cracks. My shelter looks like some relic of the
Soviet Union. If I dared to complain, I might find my airplane pulled
outside.
