Hangar rent

You guys need to move to North Carolina. I have a hangar on a private
grass strip, and it costs only $25 per month. I couldn't even conceive
of paying $300 or up per month, thats just rediculous.


I'd only have to take a 60% reduction in pay to move there.....

Yeah, well, if everything else costs proportionally the same, you'd only
need to make 8% of what you're earning now... ;-)

Only a few more years and I'm there. Are you close to Asheville, perhaps? Is
the airport on a sectional?

I flew through West Virginia this summer. There were towns there where
hangar rent was $25 a month, but the economy was dismal. I landed at one
beautiful mountaintop strip where only one active aircraft stayed, a Cessna
172. The other aircraft were hangar queens with falling-down hangars. It
was sad to see. The 172 owner said his hangar rent was $100 per year.

I live in WNC. Hangar rent here is high, especially at AVL. Where is
this NC hangar paradise?

At HPN (White Plains, NY) the deal is a little different. $72,000 gets
you a 15 year lease on a 45' T, concrete floor, electricity. After the
lease is up I get to pay again for another 15 years. That works out to
about $400/mo. not counting that they have the use of your money
during the lease term. When I moved from tie downs to the hanger the
tie down rate was $180/mo. but I understand it has gone up twice since
9/11. I think it is now around $240. Since they were built (about 4
years ago) there has been a long waiting list for hangers and I think
only a few have changed hands - I was one of the luck ones. There were
rumors of building some more but I have not heard or seen any activity
on that in a couple of years - probably another project victim of 9-11
aviation blues.

I don't know if this has been covered before, but how much is everyone
paying for their hangars and what is provided?

Mine is a T-hanger with a dirt floor, free electric and manual doors that
are a bear to open and close. The hangar is damp of course, but not too
bad.

When we first secured it the rent was 240.00 and no lease. A few months
later it went up to 280.00 and no lease. Just last month we got our fuel
bill and the hangar rent went up again to 300.00 and the owner refuses to
give us a lease.

That's a 60.00/mo. increase in less than a year. The rumor has it that the
owner is going to keep raising the rent until people start moving out and
there are a few empty hangars. At that point he feels they will be priced
properly.

My question is: at what price would you walk out of a dirt floor T-hangar
with free electric and stiff manual doors? There are no other local
airports with similar hangars that are empty. A tie-down goes for 65.00/mo.

Paying up front about doubles the effective cost. Wow, $800/mo.
