I hear you. I’m 10-15 min from KRYY. Two year wait list - for a tie down.
 
$715 at Long Beach, CA KLGB for a small T-hangar. But I’d heard they asking $900 for new tenants.
 
  • Wow

I had a lovely T-hangar at KVIS in California for $300/mo which I miss dearly. Also had a shade-hangar at KHJO for $85/mo which I wish was an option at more airports to keep off sun, hail, and snow.

When I got assigned to the Virginia area, I started looking around. Everywhere has at least a 2-3 year waiting list and one guy (at Bay Bridge airport) actually burst out laughing when I asked. Apparently it's 5-7 years at that airport.

So effectively hangars are not available at any price, at least where I am.
 
Fortuitously with no great planning on my part I built a 60x50 hangar on a ground lease with the city of Covington at KCVC about 20 years ago. Was $160/month then and is still about that. Just signed a 25 year lease for it which allows a whopping 1% a year increase. So I’m good until I’m 101 years old.
 
I don't rent, I own. My prop taxes are $1105/year. I rent out a home on the airport property and earn $1300/month. So, I basically make money each year on my hangar. However, the up front investment was non-zero of course.
 
ah yes, the shared hangars. Don't forget to pool noodle the heck out of those unobtanium tail feathers, lest the hangar rash fairy comes and gives ya a visit. BTDT.

LOL....only two planes, side by side. No risk to the empennage.
 
I can see that happening to me someday trying to put an anirplane into the hangar with a golf cart or lawn mower tug.
 
I’ve seen mistakes with hangar doors not all the way open, and collisions with the rear of a T hangar.

I can see it happening to me with just my manual tow bar. Can't see the tail of the plane when I'm pushing it.
 
I'm at KBDR and would love to get a municipal t-hangar. The communal hangarage at Three Wing or Atlantic is way too expensive. No idea how to get onto a waitlist though!

Hey hey - I sent a deposit in and today I just got on the "reserved" list for a new T hangar in Paulding, NW Atlanta area (KPUJ). They'll break ground in a few months for 30 new T hangars, should be finished in a year. They have the area/ground already leveled, electrical transformer whatnot installed, etc.

$500 a month. I assume some type of lighting and at least one electrical outlet.

I've read of airports not being GA friendly, not investing. Paulding is a refreshing example of a GA friendly airport that is expanding. They just opened the first set of brand new T hangars two months ago, and now are building 30 more. Lots of heavy equipment doing a lot of "landscaping" - they removed a hill to make the pad for the new hangars, rerouting the road to the really nice terminal, etc.

Dang....I am planning to move back to ATL next year...hopefully in the spring and if I bring this Cherokee back with me I guess it will live outside. I have looked around for space and even some of the places you could get into pretty easily 7-8 years ago are full up with long lists and lots of $$$. And I know several airports built more hangers since I left, so it seems GA is flourishing in GA.

Where in ATL land?

If Paulding is workable, and you’re certain to be moving try calling them and offering a $500 deposit along with signing a lease. They are a year out still. It’s in the airports best interest to have all leased out and deposits on hand.

My house in ATL is in Woodstock. I was previously in a partnership at KRYY, and flew from KNCI some and had some EAA friends at VPC.

PUJ would be over an hour, assuming no traffic and maybe a bit far for me.

The plane is very old and the paint is 2.5/10 so if it sits outside (assuming i get the annual and its airworthy) for a bit its not the end of the world.

But I will keep PUJ in mind.
 
Yep - Paulding would be a hike.

KRYY - did I mention a 2 year wait list now for a tie down spot? It still boggles my mind.

Yeah. I am thinking a little that depending on getting this house to sell and selling it goes...and if the cherokee doesnt bankrupt me getting it airworthy...I may sell it up here and look for somethin in GA with a hangar already that I can keep the hangar.

When I left that partnership maybe 8 years ago we had shared hangar at KRYY and it was $50-500/mo with the FBO doing pull outs.

I actually did see a share of that plane for sale on FB down in GA...they have painted it, redid the interior, added to the panel and I think OH'd the O-540. But its not at KRYY anymore it looks like..now south of ATL. If it was in the metro area i would try to buy back in when I move. Great flying Dakota.

I'm hoping to do my xc solo to KASH so I can grab some Sweet Ginger Thai food near the field.

Let me know how you like the airport. I've never flown into there being based all the way across the country in California. But, we may retire to New Hampshire someday and wanted to get a hangar if that ever happens. Purchased it in the beginning of this year and renting it out in the meantime.
 
For another Atlanta data point…After 4 ½ years on waitlist an acquaintance just got a t-hangar at PDK for $530/month.
 
Congratulations to your friend - that deserves some type of change of hangar ceremony, maybe a few dignitaries giving speeches.
