What are people paying for hangar space?
 
$290/$362/$539 depending on size here.
 
$400 FBO owned community hangar with pullout/fuel service. It was $250 in 2023 but, after another group bought it (no, not PE), it jumped up. KIYA
 
Reason I’m asking is that here Atl area they are impossible to get at any price. I’m going to say if you can get a simple T hangar here it would be $500 or so.

Yeah, it's been discussed here several times.

tl;dr Anywhere you would want to base, you can't afford. Anywhere you wouldn't want to base, you can rent super cheap.

There are exceptions. But that's the rule.
 
Yep. But I’ve not seen a survey to collect what the rates are around the country. Thought it might be useful.

Learning a lot here.
 
$610/month at San Jose, CA (KSJC) T-hangar, sliding doors

Getting $650/month for a T hangar with folding doors at Boire Field (KASH) in Nashua, NH
 
Yeah, I mean a good survey would be interesting. But it would be an enormous amount of work because it would have to be by airport and take into account size, heat, power and whether or not it's shared. Probably some other stuff also. I've paid as little as $125 (current) and as much as $450. But that alone isn't super helpful because for $125 I'm in a T in the sticks that few people would be interested in and $450 was for a shared hangar in Mexico with a dude who lived in an apartment in the hangar and I could call on my way to the airport and he'd have the plane cleaned and on the ramp when I got there. Price alone doesn't help much. :)

Same in DC. Take a number.
 
I feel like I have the biggest hangar bargain in the country. $700 a month gets me a 65 x 70 hangar with a bathroom at what May very well be the best GA airport in Texas. Utilities included. Before getting it, I was on hangar lists all around. I was on one hangar list for 12 years.
 
Depends… city owned - way under market price, but at least a 5 year waiting list.

Privately owned - expensive, but sporadically available.
 
In ATL LZU seems to have hangars come up from time to time. Down here in FL, FIN is ~$350/mo about 100 on the waiting list.
 
$900 a month. 45 x 40. Needed the width for my airplane's 40 foot wingspan.
 
T's are $300 and the erect-a-tube boxes are $350 at XSA. Hopefully won't go up too much when they build the new tubes next year.

I’m paying $540.00 at FTY, big community hangar with pull outs. It’s closer to my son, he flies it 90% of the time, he’s moving closer to PDK and can’t even get a return call! ‍:rolleyes:
I’m in Newnan, CCO has pretty much zero availability, with the exception of buying a hangar!

Same as I was paying last time the subject came up, a bit less than the time before *that* thread.

Nauga,
accumulated.
 
Rolling door T, $450… I’m paying $550 for the end which has a roll up garage door, reasonable extra space and 220v…

Gulf Shores, so a very usable airport 365 days a year. And 2 miles from the beach.
 
$575 plus utilities for a 50 x 50 at KSLN
Edit: 40 x 40
Final edit: Damn thing is 50 x 50

I went looking to see the hangar rents at KBED. My googlefu is failing or ma$$port is not making the rents publicly available.

16-ish years ago, the J row Ts at KBED went from $505/month to $606/month. With that increase I bailed and moved to a $85/month tie-down with the HAFB Aeroclub.
 
Outside shade hangar on grass strip 240 month. Hoping to get enclosed hangar 40 miles away for 375 month. Tough finding a hangar in the Sarasota area.
 
$338.62, but we get $90 rebate per month on local fuel purchases to encourage active pilots to hangar their aircraft at our airport. About 50% of our hangared aircraft never buy fuel an apparently do not fly. It's sometimes hard to collect my fuel allowance in the depth of winter.
 
$75 a month includes electricity. One advantage of living in the middle of nowhere………..

I was paying $225 for a small T-hangar with sliding (manual) doors and concrete floor (and one electrical outlet) at CJR when I moved out of there in 2014. My hangar now is done paid for in 2008 and attached to my house.
 
I probably needed to ask to include the other monthly costs of a hangar. This is a partial list that I've gleaned from reading many posts here on what people put in their hangars. Got to go with the POA expert advice:

-Wide Screen TV and monthly streaming
-Lazy Boy chair and couch
-Fridge
-Microwave
-Workbench to store snacks and soda

Move. (But not to Florida, please.)

Rented T-hangar with electricity for $350/mo at KGIF (Winter Haven). Does not include snow removal.

Nice! And, Florida seems like a great place to move to. But happy enough in ATL, so staying put.

This nugget wisdom is why I hang out here.
 
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.
 
Zero for two of them. The third cost 400.00 a year in runway (turf) maintenance fees ...

Well, you are closer to Ga Tech.....

(5-2 so far this season; not bad for a bunch of geeks able to pass diff eqs.)
Got to admit - I'm college sports agnostic. Kind of rare around these parts. I can't quite yet get my head around having a college team of 20 year old NIL rich kids going to a school I never attended have an influence on if I'm despondent or in a great mood depending on who wins the game.

That's understandable, but I'm a proud GT alum. And maybe it's different now, but Tech wasn't exactly full of rich kids when I went there. (Personally, I was raised po, but after years and years of hard work I've raised myself to poor, and it's one of my greatest achievments.)

Yes, it must be hard to be an agnostic. In the South, Georgia in particular, there are three primary religious organizations: the SBC, the SEC, and the ACC.

I have all that stuff three miles away at home. I love my wife and being with her even more than I love my airplanes, so I’m saving the above listed expenses. Life is good!
 
$40 a month, electricity included. All metal T-hanger , sliding doors, built in the 40’s. 9 inches clearance each side of wing on my 172 with Horton kit.
 
And also need to add cost of a tug - powered hand tug, or used golf cart or lawn tractor?

Paulding needs the "desperate piston owners" demographic because it is inconveniently located. Both due to distance from "anywhere" and because the road network out that way stinks if you're trying to get anywhere quickly. As of 9:30 PM, Waze says it would take me 49 minutes to drive the 27 miles to PUJ and 38 minutes to drive 32 miles to VPC, which includes 22 miles of interstate (i.e. fast) travel and only 3 traffic signals in the 8 miles from the interstate to the airport.

I'm sure there is some jet traffic at PUJ, but there are a half dozen airports in the area that are much better suited for folks who have enough money to buy convenience.
 
Paulding has something the dozens of other airports don’t have. Tie down and now hangar availability.

Yep - takes me 35 min to get there.

1st world problem IMHO.

Ya do what you've gotta do. Or I'd be paying a thousand bucks a month at RYY (15 miles from home) or FTY (13 miles) as opposed to a fraction of that at VPC (32 miles).
