Temporary Hangar?
Looks like we're not going to have hangar space for our newly restored T6 this winter...anyone know of a firm which can supply a reasonably priced temporary (inflatable or tent) mobile hangar?

been looking at " mobile field shelters" for horses, no planning permission required as are " towable" as long as no permanent base is used. can get the eagle in one but dont know your wingspan - they can go up to 24 ft. lots of suppliers, dont know web sites off hand so try a search . recommend ascot timber stables though. good luck

Firstly, somebody (Aerbabe?) posted a link to a site with instructions for making your own in the last year, anybody know where it is?, it's eluding me.
Secondly, if you can spare a day (and also you get a free look around the museum at Duxford), go to helitech next month. I'm pretty certain that I recall a few companies selling temporary hangar "solutions" at the last one. The big advantage of this (apart from the free look around the museum!) is that you get to actually see them up.

Try the adverts in magazines like Farmers Weekly etc.
Use the word "aircraft hangar" and the price will be double that of the same unit for storing agricultural machinery!!!
Seriously though, you should consider the ability of the design to shed or withstand snow loads.
Also consider whether the design would damage the aircraft in the event of a collapse/blow-down in extreme winds
