    Could I have a small aircraft hangar built?

    Would I be able to have a small aircraft hangar built on my several acres of land? I'm looking to make a purchase of a small Cessna plane in 2023 so it would be perfect to have a small aircraft hangar to store it in. I won't be flying it or anything, it would simply be for storage purposes. I'd also want very good security too! What sort of pricing might I be looking at approximately for both labour and materials?
