A hangar need not cost the earth to build and I picked up a good second hand triple gang mower for just under £300.
Despite the cost of setting up and maintaining a strip, the real bonus is having a plane just outside your house ready and waiting whenever you want to go have a jolly. You can't put a price on that!
and with that, I'm off for a flip right now (well, the sun is shining and there's a whole lot of scattered cumulus to go play in).
