I  would  think Thrusters 2 seat are rarely on line. I think it was 1986 when the training one came out and i first flew one in front of  a large audience at a Mangalore Airshow. I would have preferred to have done it less Publicly.  Nev

I know of only 2. 1 in NSW . 1 in Tassie.

Really enjoying the thread and seeing the different approaches being used.

Would it be possible for those who've built or had hangars built to give the dimensions, floor type and costs. (probably the approximate year as well)

Hi Ian.

 

As mentioned previously my hangar is based on  a 12m x 12m dome structure with additional steel wall  and access door of my own design.  The floor is compacted roadbase. I have built the whole thing in the last two years using current material prices for under $8000.

 

The arched structure kit took 7 days to throw up, the wall another 3 days.

 

A good practical solution for my situation

My wife remembers about $10,000 dollars about six years ago from Alpha industries in Wingfield SA. I reckon about the same for the concrete floor job. It is 12m by 12m and it currently stores 3 planes...  the old SK, the new J230 and the Lancair long-wing 360.

Doors are an expensive part of hangar cost.

Hangar tea, coffee and cake.  I’ve been fitting an undercarriage upgrade to my aircraft using a factory retro fit to go from 540 to 600kg. Thought it would only take two days and be finished on Saturday. Put a message out with 3 days notice that on Sunday would have pot on and biscuits and cake from 8 to 11.  Had a great turn out of flying friends no biscuits opened and the cakes (apple, chocolate and pulleys that my better half made) were eaten.  Even got a bit of the u/c fit up done as well.  Everyone agreed should done another one.  Cheers.
