60x65? was for sale this spring for around 169k. I look at the for
for-sale signs when I drive around over there. I've yet to see anything
offered for under 60k. Apparently small hangars don't go up for sale
often or are snapped up right away by "insiders". Lake Elmo (21D) east
side of the Twin Cities, near the Wisconsin border, might be cheaper.

If you're only flying in once or twice per month, I suspect another
30-45 minutes (one way) in the car would save you a bundle. Where is
your folks house?

I'm not in the market, just wondered what they go for now. The folks
live on the western shore of Turtle Lake, about a half mile south of I
and Lexington.

I've heard South St Paul (SGS) is reasonably priced - home of Ballistic
Recovery Systems (BRS). This airport is not part of the MAC reliever
airport system - it's only 8 nautical miles (east) of MSP, and about 5
miles (almost due south) of Downtown St Paul (STP).

One of the guys I went to high school with works at Wipaire as a
mechanic. I've landed there a few times too.
