I think our tie down cost is something like $85/month and hangars
are available at $450. We only have few snow storms a year so it
was not too bad. The over $4K that we save from not having a hangar
can buy a lot of avgas. $45/month hangar cost certainly makes me
drool but I have to consider the tradeoffs.
We have lived in this area for 15 years and really enjoy all the
things that if offers. It's 15 minutes to the boathouse where we can
go rowing from April to November. 20 minutes to the marina where our
friend keeps his sailboat (we are his 'regular' crews & guests). The
airport is also less than 15 minutes from our house and we can be over
a beautiful river right after takeoff with breathtaking mountain range
in view in 10 minutes. Our diveshop is only 10 minutes away and the
windsurfing spot is only 30 minutes up the river. Beautiful hiking
trails are everywhere. I may never get into rock climbing but it is
just across the river. Being an outdoor freak, I can not see living
among acres of acres of cornfields ;-)
