Not sure how much space there is for the Leesburg International Airport to expand. There's all those lakes around that area. http://terraserver-usa.com/image.asp...Lon=-81.808722

Hey Tal, if you look at some of the runways in the world, those lakes look like small potatoes.
The airport could also be in Ocala, or between here and Ocala.
I think our Developer is to be admired. He makes things happen for us. I hope this will be one of them. I want an airport!!!!!

Travolta's is a private strip that can handle a B-707 (his private aircraft painted like Quantas). That's where a BMW was run off the end at high speed killing its youthful occupants (sudden impact with a tree). Runway is longer than Leesburg which as Tal noted is 5000 feet. Need at least 7000 feet preferably 8000 feet for the larger equipment.
