Received word a start was made this morning on the erection of our steel frame. We traveled to Yarrawonga the following day and cannot tell you how exciting it was to see eight uprights and supporting beams in place.
It gives a different feel to the block to have the size of the hangar defined in steel. Not yet sure if it’s larger or smaller than I’d envisaged.
Most of the hangars at Yarrawonga front directly onto the taxiway, but we decided on a set-back of seven metres. If at a later stage we decide to enlarge the hangar we’ll have several metres to play with and in the meantime we can park our trike in front of the hangar and not encroach onto the taxiway.
When we drove into the airport, we were pleased to see another two hangar sites were well into the construction stage and several more blocks were also ‘ready to go’. Our friends Mark and Jeanene Howard are building the same size hangar on the block next to us, being constructed simultaneously by the same company, Cobram Plumbing and Engineering. "CLICK HERE"
Externally they’ll probably look like twin hangars, but they’ll differ internally.
