John, you have seen my hangar. When I first spoke to Roger (airport owner) aboutrenting, my first question was, do you mind if I set up shop and build an airplanein there? He said, no problem at all, in fact we encourage that kindof activity. He has seen my empty hangar evolve from two workbenches and a fewpower/hand tools to the shop it is now. He has no problem with it at all. I don't leave lights burning all night (he pays the electric), but I did havea full size fridge/kegerator in there for a year... he didn't even mind that.I felt kind of guilty having him keep my keg cold all summer during those 100+degree days, so I downsized to a small fridge and I kill the power on everythingexcept the fridge before I leave each day... he didn't ask me to, but I do...it just makes sense. Knowing you, I'm sure that you have a similar setup...not sure what is so dangerous about that. Sorry it doesn't seem to be workingout. I know that this doesn't help your situation in the least, but I guess I'm justtrying to say it just depends who you are dealing with. Perhaps there is anotherfield you could check in to? Best of luck!--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on FuselageRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Hi John,Sounds to me like the guy is looking for some free upgrades to his hangar. Thenhe can get even more rent from the next guy. Perhaps you can get him to payfor the upgrades. I know, possible but not probable.--------Scott LiefeldFlying N11MS since March 1972Steel TubeC-85-12Wire WheelsBrodhead in 1996Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2011 10:31:10 -0400 (EDT)
