87Y (Wisconsin) Hangar Talk

Waunakee airfield is still owned by Mr. and Mrs. Ripp (I'm forgetting
their first names), they are the couple who started it in the 40's and
still live in a house on the east side of the field near the T-hangers.

They could easily sell it to a developer and make a boatload, but I've
heard thru the grapevine that something may be put together to buy it
from them and keep it as an airport. So far, I'm not privy to anything.
But I'm hoping it stays an airport, with the asking prices for hangers
at Morey, it's the best thing going right now.

Last I saw - there are T-hangar build sites at MSN. (55 cents sq/ft annual
lease rate). Maybe we can get a co-op of 10 hangarless aircraft owners and
build there?

Oh my god. I am so glad I live in El Dorado, AR (ELD). The lot I just built
my hanger on is $450./year and is 100' deep and 60' feet wide.
