Boeing 737 (BBJ)/ Boeing 757
I'm an aviation student who has been doing some research on the costs associated with storing a bigger sized corporate aircraft.
Has anyone here flown a BBJ, 757 or know the costs associated with them?
More specifically, I was wondering how much it costs to have them parked at an FBO on the ramp vs put into a hangar for the night, or how much it costs in rent to have them based at an FBO that isn't owned by the corporation who owns the planes

Worked for an operator that had 2 757's while I was there. We hangared them while they were at home and that was it. There are very few (if any) FBOs that would invest the money required to house an a/c of that size on an occasional basis. As far as ramp/parking fees thats all over the board and mostly depends on location to a major metropolitan area where the price goes up just like everything else. That size aircraft is engineered to sit outside, needing only a wash and brightwork done if the principal is rich enough to have the inlets/leading edges polished and maintained. If you really want to know the cost of parking that size a/c try calling Signature flight services near major metropolitan areas.
