Aircraft Hangar and Tie Down Essentials

Navigating the world of private aviation often involves understanding the intricacies of where to house and secure your aircraft. Whether you're a transient pilot seeking temporary accommodation or an aircraft owner looking for long-term solutions, this guide delves into the essential services and considerations for aircraft hangars and tie-downs. We'll explore the availability, management, and leasing options for these crucial facilities, ensuring you have the knowledge to make informed decisions for your aviation needs.

Understanding Tie Down Spaces

For pilots operating transient aircraft, securing a reliable tie-down space is paramount. These spaces are designed to keep your aircraft safely secured against the elements and ground movement. The management of transient tie-down spaces at this particular location is handled by Utah Aviation Services. It is highly recommended to reserve these spaces in advance to guarantee availability, especially during peak travel times. To make a reservation, pilots can contact Utah Aviation Services directly at 801-798-9888.

When it comes to long-term tie-down solutions, the airport staff manages these arrangements. Currently, long-term tie downs are priced at $900 per year, which can also be paid monthly at $75 per month. However, it's important to note that the long-term tie down spaces have reached their full capacity. If you are interested in a long-term tie down, you will be automatically added to a tie-down waitlist upon completing the Tie Down Request Form. Be prepared for a waiting period of approximately 12 to 18 months for long-term tie down availability.

Hangar Availability and Leasing Explained

Hangar space is a valuable commodity for aircraft owners, offering protection from weather and enhanced security. The availability of hangars can vary, and new hangars are often under construction to meet demand. It is important to understand that all hangars at this facility are privately owned. This means that direct arrangements for hangar space are made with individual owners.

To facilitate the process of connecting hangar owners with potential tenants, a Hangar Lease Availability Map has been developed. This map serves as a vital tool for hangar owners to list their hangars for sale or to indicate that space within them is available for lease. The map uses a colour-coding system to provide a clear visual representation of availability:

• Green hangars indicate that space is currently available. Clicking on a green hangar will often reveal the owner's contact information, allowing interested parties to initiate discussions.
• Yellow hangars signify that the hangar is for sale by the owner.
• Red hangars indicate that the hangar is not currently available for sale or lease by the owner.

This map is specifically designed to streamline the process of finding available hangar space, making it easier for interested tenants to connect with owners. It is crucial to remember that only airport staff have the authority to update this map, ensuring the accuracy of the information presented.

How to List or De-list Your Hangar

Hangar owners looking to list their available space for sale or lease should contact Airport Management. You can reach them at 801-804-4593 or via email at [email protected]. When your hangar space is no longer available, or if the hangar has been sold, it is essential to contact Airport Management promptly to have your hangar de-listed from the map. This ensures that the availability map remains accurate and helpful for everyone.
