INA201 Posted Tuesday at 02:35 AM Report Posted Tuesday at 02:35 AM Moving to the Raleigh area in a few months and looking for an airport to base the Mooney. We will live in the Fuquay area reasonably close to KTTA, KHRJ, and possibly even KJNX. Does anyone have any advice for obtaining a hangar in this neck of the woods? Looking forward to getting involved in the community. Thank you for the help.
midlifeflyer Posted Tuesday at 10:57 AM Report Posted Tuesday at 10:57 AM I fly out of TTA, but I am a non-owner. TTA has a huge waiting list for hangar space. JNX is, at this point, pretty much run by a 141 school. I’m not sure about the hangar situation at HRJ, so I’d call them to get a general idea unless someone else here is familiar with the area. If you will be near Fuquay, have you considered looking at 5W5? This is an old airport that was recently purchased by a group that are still in the process of rehabbing it. New runway is in great condition but they are still in the process of building facilities. Edit: you can see the HRJ waitlist here.
INA201 Posted Tuesday at 11:53 AM Author Report Posted Tuesday at 11:53 AM Thank you for the information. I didn’t realize 5w5 had been purchased. I will look into that as well. I’ll jump on the waiting lists too. Thanks
TaildraggerPilot Posted Wednesday at 12:09 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 12:09 AM Triple W has reopened, and they might be actively evicting those storing anything but airplanes in the hangars.

Thanks for the update. I made a call to the Triple W folks. No response yet. I Google Mapped it and it does appear that there are auto shops, a sandblasting business, Bedliner company, and some others in the various buildings/hangars. Stay tuned, I’ll report back. Thanks y’all.
