Hi everyone,

Just want to know if anybody have an easy and cheap plan to build a hanger on a farm for my microlight?

vhpy
Kom kyk hoe lyk my hanger (s).
Ek het eers een gebou en daarna nog een. Drie aeries kan daarin parkeer.
Die koste was laag want ek het tweedehandse bou materiaal gebruik en niks fancy gedoen nie..en ek en my plaas werkers het self die werk gedoen.
Kom kuier met jou trike.. :)

This is probably the most cost effective design. The advantage is you save on engineering the massive doors, as it's a much simpler side door arrangement (as shown on the right end)

The disadvantage is you will have to put your trike on a dolly track to load it in sideways.

Framework can be either wood pole or steel.
Corrugated iron roof
Shade cloth sides and door.

May even be more cost effective to build out of cinder blocks.
