Yellow tailwheel airplane inside a hangar. Subleasing unused hangar space can change a tenant's responsibilities even when the original tenant keeps most of the building. Before handing over a key, determine what the main lease allows, what the subtenant will do and which risks the original tenant continues to carry. The key decision is whether […]
Airplane parked inside an open hangar. Several businesses can share a hangar without sharing the same insurance needs. A maintenance shop, aircraft owner and detailing business may work under one roof but control different property and accept different customer obligations.

When it comes to aircraft ownership, most pilots think about performance, safety, maintenance, and hangar availability. But one factor that often gets overlooked until renewal time is this: Where you store your aircraft can significantly affect your insurance premium.

Hangar insurance is a type of insurance policy, designed to protect your hangar from physical damage.
