I am glad to be in a hangar except when I have to write the rent check every month
.
A friend has several acft. The fabric ones are always hangared, but he found it cheaper to lease a chunk of ground and build covered tiedowns for his other toys.
This paid off within weeks, as he sent pics of the galvanized sheet roof with some pretty serious hail dents in it.
His philosophy is that if it's insured and can be replaced, it may not be cost effective to protect it.
I am, unfortunately, going to be moving from a nice, big box hangar to a T-hangar that's 65 road miles closer to my new home.
