Aircraft hangar tents

A tent hangar shelters light aircraft, helicopters and drones on airfields where a permanent hangar is too slow or too expensive to build. Wide spans and large doors make it easy to move aircraft in and out.

Planning tips

Wingspan plus clearance

The clear door width must exceed the wingspan with a safety margin.

Airfield rules

Airports and airfields have their own rules for buildings near runways; check them first.

Wind

Airfields are exposed; the manufacturer designs the frame and anchoring for local wind loads.

Frequently asked questions

What span do I need for a light aircraft?

+

Many single-engine aircraft have wingspans of 10–11 m, so a 15–20 m span with a wide door works; check your aircraft's dimensions.
