Temp hanger space near Minneapolis after Oshkosh

Temp Hangar
I have space in a 54X48 box hangar at Faribault, MN (FBL) which is 3 miles south outside of the Minneapolis Class B airspace. The hangar has my RV6 in it but is otherwise empty...this means I could put about 6 more 2 place RV's in there. It has good lighting and electric with concrete floor but no heating or cooling with a 48' overhead bifold door. It seals well to the weather
FBL is about 250 miles west of OSH. You are welcome to store your RV9 there if you wish. Be advised that the airport was hit by multiple tornado's this past fall which destroyed 13 private hangars, many aircraft, the main City hangar, and damaged most city owned rental Tee hangars. Fortunately, my hangar was not even scratched which only a few occupants can say. While the runways and taxiways are functioning as normal, fuel is a problem now but should be resolved soon. The airport is located very near a ramp to Interstate 35 and is about a 30 minute drive to the South metro Twin Cities area.

Thank You
Dick, Thanks for the offer! I will email you to follow up. I actually stopped in Faribault both ways the last time I flew to Oshkosh. It was a very nice airport and a great stopping place to fuel up and go direct to KOSH. It is sad news about the tornado. Hope things get up and running this spring.
I was hoping for something closer to the Minneapolis airport, but is there a shuttle I can take that runs through town?

I will check with another RV guy at Anoka County who usually has an open spot.
