A cool show is now airing on the travel chanel about homes on private airstrips. Just saw it flipping thru. Sorry about the late notice.
 
Yeah, it's over. I enjoyed all 3 minutes of it though.

Well I am still living with my parents.
 
I flew over John Travolta's house the other day. All I can say is wow... unfortunatly no planes in the "driveway" but still impressive. A few million from now and maybe I'll try to grab a piece of land there.
 
I flew out to Ocala for lunch with my wife once, and we took a spin over Jumbolair. Both planes happened to be parked in the "driveway."
 
I keep telling ya, the burgers in Ocala are worth the trip. I never leave the airport, anyway. Doesn't matter how interesting the city is.

Save your money, Ocala is about as exciting as C-SPAN.

[/ QUOTE ]I think that's the point. If you got that kind of bank and a fancy jet, I'd think you'd want your private airpark in a secluded area far from the masses and big city skyscrapers. The less to worry about restrictive noise ordinances, NIMBY residential developments, and the likely Class B airspace of a big, exciting city. Plus, you've got a plane for chrissakes, you want excitement - take a short hop to Tampa, Orlando, or even Miami.
