things that are mildlyinteresting

Not usually. If you were rich, you’d just have your chauffeur drive you to the local airport, because your megabucks business jet would need a much longer runway than you find in these.

Most of these people have several-decades-old Cessnas or Pipers that probably cost around what you’d pay for a second car (bought new).

I have a coworker who moved to one of these not long ago. He's definitely not rich. Do you see the size of the houses? Do those look extravagant to you?

Most of the folks living in places like this have opted to invest in planes rather than cars or nice houses. My buddy drives a shitbox car but he's got a hell of a hotrod airplane that he does stunt racing in.

Different strokes for different folks. I also used to assume anyone with a plane was a t rich asshole status, but it's a whole lifestyle for some middle income, and likely single, folk.
