This page was Jim Pappas' idea. If you have space available and are a couple of stops from a coast that might get hurricane damage, please send me your information. Relevant Links: Mappoint | How far is it? | NOAA

I can make room for one RV with my 172 in my hangar at Pryor Field (KDCU). I don't think an RV-10 will fit but I do think any RV two-place will fit. rv7boy at yahoo.comAL

Denver
I'm not sure if anyone wants to come to Denver for relocation, but I have my hangar empty and available for a short period to anyone needing to relocate around the hurricane.

Quncy, FL
My identifier is 49FD on AIRNAV. It’s our private airstrip and my hangar can easily house four more RVs in addition to the two airplanes that we have. I’m about 80 miles inland from the gulf coast of Florida, but we hardly ever have damage from hurricanes; it’s the “spin off” tornadoes that get us. My hangar is a well built manufactured metal building that’s supposed to withstand 120 mph winds. RVs are welcome.

Atlanta
I live at Mallards Landing, GA04. It's on AirNav. We're south of Atlanta about 25 miles. I could put an RV in my hangar, and certainly many more on my lot if needed.

I Live at Mallards Landing (GA04) just south of Atlanta, GA. I have a large hangar and can handle a couple of RVs. The runway is 5000 grass and is in fine shape. Call if you need a safe house.

KLZU
I've got a big T-Hanger at LZU that I could likely fit a couple more RV's in. I also have a T at MGM which would be available if I am at LZU. At any rate, have someone who wants some shelter give me a call!

GA
9A1
Covington, GA
I talked with a friend, Brad Wiliams, who has an RV8. He has a large area by his hanger that could be used to tie down quite a few airplanes. While not hangered, it is about 507 nm north of Miami, and would be a good place to put 15 or more RV's. The strip is grass, about 2500' I think, uphill, with a slight dogleg in the middle. Daylight only, no lights. It's not really that hard to get in too, but I wouldn't recommend any real low time pilots try it. They'd have to have their own tie downs. While they still may get wet, they'd be safer than being down there!
If you think anyone might be interested, I can get the coordinates (it's not on the chart) for you sometime today. It is approximately 8 miles N. of Covington, GA (9A1), of GA Hwy 81, just to give you an idea of where it's at.

I'm located in Louisville, Ga (2J3) and can accomodate one, possibly two RVs in my hangar. We have a 5000 ft runway and avgas and nearby motels. I'll provide my truck for transportation or the cops will come and take you into town, 5 minutes away. My day phone is 478 625 3586.

Flushing
I thought I would volunteer my hangar for any relocation necessary. While I'm a long way from MIA and not really helpful, this sucker may come up the east coast and then I could be useful. Unfortunately other things do happen, so since you've started this list my hangar is available for whoever need's it, for whatever reason.

Abilene
I am in Abilene, Texas and with EAA Chapter 471 based at Abilene Regional (KABI). We are about 160 nm west of Dallas. We have access to two large community hangars. One hangar is leased from the City of Abilene by the local EAA Warbird Squadron #5 and has remaining space for about 4 RV's. The other hangar is owned by the City of Abilene, with space for 15-20 RV's. It is currently used only by a North American T-6 and the local medivac helicopter (only when the weather is inclement). I will speak with the Airport Manager regarding this second hangar, but it has been used by itinerant aircraft in the past. I cannot imagine that we would be refused during this national weather emergency. Also, I and several other Chapter members have spare bedrooms available to the flight crews that would bring their planes. Please post this availability for our fellow flyers in the southeast US.
