The Ultimate Spot, a Vintage Airplane Hangar. Where my 1941 J3 Cub Lives.

I think he’s lying about the gas cans. That’s probably more whiskey 🤣

You got some good some great Japanese whiskey in that hangar especially the bottle of Yamazaki single malt. 😊. Every day my wife asks me if I’m going to the hangar so she can have some peace and quiet 😳. My hangar has old airline seats (both first class and coach) microwave, fridge and XM radio. Got lots of signs and stickers too.

Just after 4:00... your mention of Colgan Airways and shot of your uniform hat gave me an enjoyable flashback to my youth when I learned to fly at Manassas with Colgan in the early '70s. Started in Cherokee 140s, and the one I flew most was N7390J, which last time I checked was still flying and based in northern CA. My instructors at Colgan were 'Wick' Wicker on the ground and Bill Sanborn in the air. In 1970 at age 13 I was probably one of the youngest student pilots in America, definitely in that part of the country. Nickname around the airport was 'Jr. Birdman.' The Colgan fbo at HEF was a Piper dealer but soon switched to selling and instructing in Cessnas so I continued my ppl training in the 150/52 and 172. Liked the wing shade and being able to see the ground better, and the Cessnas were probably better as basic trainers actually, but I missed the Cherokee. This was all back when the company was still run very much hands-on by founder Chuck Colgan and the 'airline' was a Beech 18 and 99 often flown by Chuck himself, used mostly to move IBMers between Manassas and Poughkeepsie or Westchester. If I recall correctly he had a Queenair too. Definitely a Beechcraft guy though. As a former Colgan pilot I'm sure you're familiar with the saying, "Move the Rig." In other words, a stationary airplane is losing money. Unfortunately that philosophy acquired a somewhat different meaning when his son took over the reins- more like, "Move the rig or I've got someone else who will." A whole 'nother story there, right? Enjoyed your hangar tour, a fantastic man-cave!

Congratulations, a very pleasant place to store a plane and spend time with family and friends.❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Dude’s got great taste!

I have to say it's really nice whisky hangar. I am glad you found also some space for this beautiful J3. Greetings from Poland!

Awesome hanger and plane maybe will see you up at Van Sant again sometime missed you the last time 👍🇺🇸

Looks like an awesome spot to hang out, plan, and sleep on the couch when the wife is mad at ya. Super cool!

My kind of hangar. I owned a 1946 Globe Swift for seven years, but my hangar was not as period or swanky as yours. But I miss both my man-cave hangar and my plane. If I could afford it, I'd own a Super Decathlon, a Stearman, an AT-6, and a Curtis P-40N........and a J3 Cub.

First Class! Nice setup Joe Costanza! 👍👍

Well done... A hanger is so much more than a parking spot for a plane. It's a parking spot for a lifestyle

A very nice setup. I seen the American flag in your videos and I put one in my hanger also thanks for idea. If you ever get down to Arkansas I have a 2000ft grass strip 66Ar stop on by.

Our hangar needs this kind of makeover.

thank you from France for the visit ! it's always wonderful to discover that there are places where aviation dreams come true, where it's nice to sit while the rain drums on the hangar's metal sheets, next to a plane that's meditating on when lift force arrives

I like your style brother

We used to keep welding rod in our inoperative refrigerator.

Great! You took from us those good SUNTORY whiskeys.

Reminds me a little bit of mine. I get the same sort of response from my girlfriend "how long are you gonna be out there?" lol. No place I'd rather be to be honest. I need to upgrade my flag though and get on your level

Dang…….so cool! I can see why you like your hanger so much. I wouldn’t want to get home either. 40’s vibe, music, and a really cool plane to look at. Very nice!

Nice hanger
