An "airport neighbourhood" where people can store their planes in their yard and taxi directly to the runway

/c/fuckcars : "use some other form of transportation!"

Also /c/fuckcars: "No! Not like that!"

Must be lovely to hear your neighbor fire up their Cessna at 7 in the morning for their morning commute.

Little known fact. Airplanes still use leaded fuel. I’ll bet that the blood levels for all of these families are elevated. Not a great place to raise a kid.

This is like looking at a yet to be made Tom Scott video.

Many pilots do this as a means of reducing the costs associated with operating out of areas with high hangar and service costs. This is Northwest of Chicago near Rockford. The about page explains a lot of the obvious questions.

This exists?! Oh my That's not just mildly, it's really interesting!

"honey, Joe's wife is sick, can you take care of control tower duty today?"

The smell and noise would be unbearable.

And they can't even afford an HOA to water the grass by the runway.

I want to see a train-based one of these

That's a lot leaded fuel to be inhaling everyday.

I have a friend who lives in one of these neighborhoods but right in the middle of a city. Blows my mind that it was there the whole time and I just never noticed until I went to his house.

this is quite interesting. but also these fuckers are pretentious

Where the hell am I supposed to put my boat?

Half a million per house isn't really that bad considering it's on an airport and you get a hangar

Here's a nice big one just south of Daytona Beach

Why doesn't that runway have, like, lights and stuff. Or an ILS.

Oh and you guys don't have planes.

We actually have one of these in Dayton, Nevada. Half hour away from Carson City, hour from Reno, not much to speak of at all in the town really (other than some historical interests) but there's an entire subdivision with a golf course and a small airfield and "hangar homes".

Hoskins Field in Washington is like this, but more trees and turf.

Ofc it's in the Midwest

We will eat them first.

I guess it works as a pilot neighborhood but Rich people would never want to live in such an obvious place. Makes them too easy to eat.
