New Airport Could Ease Hangar Shortages In Coastal Georgia

Originally published at: New Airport Could Ease Hangar Shortages In Coastal Georgia - AVweb

Bryan County, Georgia is considering a new public use airport to ease severe hangar shortages in the region.

Hangar shortages. How about the ones occupied by derelict aircraft that haven’t been flown in years, out of annual, or sitting inside because the owner died, has medical issues, and or refuses to put on the for sale signage? Another issue I’ve seen are hangers turned into man caves, car garages, and hobby workshops. Perhaps once these issues finally get addressed, there just might be some availability for aircraft that actually get flown.

Thank you, Amelia. A good news story for GA. Love it.

As I look back in my early log books it is troubling how many of those places are now gone or hanging on by some thin membrane…

Build more rural airports. Lots of them. Close KDCA.

Building a new airport with hangars, is much more cost effective then just building more hangars, right?
