So for quite a while now, even before I quit flying for the airlines, I’ve wanted to live on runway. The ideal situation was to buy land and build a runway, but that was likely never going to happen due to cost and lack of land around.

Recently we had been thinking how cool it would be to create a Pilot Lodge, a sort of flight school with onsite housing for students, focusing not just on churning out new pilots, but teaching true flying skills, making students the safest and most competent pilots possible. Of course, there’s no better place to do that than Alaska, and as luck would have it, we stumbled into our dream property. Over 100 Acres, with a home, hangar, and it’s own airstrip, just a 15 min flight from downtown Anchorage.

Now if it was just an amazing home with a great hangar, perfect runway, and with a few guest cabins on the property for students to stay in while flight training, that would have probably been out of our price range. Honestly, after looking for years, it’s also a bit non-existant.

So this is our new home. The runway is great for bush planes like a Super Cub, but could use some improvement for students flying 172s, the hangar could use a coat of paint or 10, we’ve got some work to do building housing for students and CFIs, and there’s plenty of house projects to go around.

So this is our story, or at least a new chapter in our story.
Building my dream of a hangar and home on a runway, on our runway and
building a Pilot Flight Training Lodge in Alaska.
