    Well I have almost got my hangar completed and set up. I haven't had a chance to get out much lately because of my determination to get my house and work area completed in the hangar. So I thought I would throw a few pics out to the brotherhood to show off what I have been working towards. It's still a work in progress but at least its feasible to get my 355 and other racing projects under one roof now. Just like I did in houston I am going to start washing and detailing planes on the side along with show cars starting this week. So anybody who needs their planes cleaned up or needing a show car detail, shoot me a buzz. I can get a 310 in the hangar with no problems but anything bigger than that and I will have to put some of my babies outdoors or in a neighbors hangar! Im out at hicks so fly in is not a problem. Also had to show off my new man was meant to fly picture I just got up yesterday! Damnit looks good!!! Also thew in a pic of my friends shop that I am storing the 355 in and a few of its other buddies.

    WAY overkill for the tiny aircraft you've got stored in it.

    Very nice set up, how much room do you still have to spare?

    rules state you must have an aircraft, I actually have 4 (electrics and gas!) hahahaha, this economy picks up and I will probably get a 172 or a champ. room is stil limited until I can get all the building supplies and spare lumber out of there. Lots of cleaning still to be done. But I did get the 355 in monday night and already got it up on jacks with some brake work in progress. So glad I finally have enough room to really get something done!!

    I think I need to come to D/FW and hang out at your place! Seeing your set up makes me sad though...I lost my job in Dec and the first thing to go was my hanger! While I had not taken the time to set it up as nice as yours is now, it certainly was a great place to park all the extra cars and crap that I have! If I find a job soon (does not seem likely) maybe the neighbor will let me buy it back (fly in fly out 'hood...hanger is across the street and down a bit from my house)...

    Love the pole and clearly it is getting proper use by a VERY LOVELY lady! I have a $20...I'll be up tomorrow! LOL!

    Best,
    James

    Oh, that's why they call 'em hangars.

    Since the pole is taken care of, all it needs now is a bar and l-dude will be all set to handle pilots, too.
