Hello,
I spent almost eight years building and probably started my hangar wait list a little late. I'm in north Georgia and the hangar lists are 40 or more deep and this seems to be the norm nationwide.
I get the feeling that the county governments do not have much concern for general aviation. With such strong demand what are the issues besides the typical bureaucracy? I know Georgia is sitting on a massive budget surplus. Private construction companies are building everywhere but yet t-hangar construction stagnates?? Is there any motivation for airport managers to expand? Is there little return on investment for general aviation, is corporate big box hangars where all the focus is? I see a lot of corporate hangar construction all over the USA.
Any insider opinions appreciated!!
