Some People Are Lucky Enough To Be Able To Fly To Work,

and if you live in one of the 640 airparks in the world,


you can park you aircraft on your driveway, above California’s Cameron Airpark Estates, one of the world’s nicest airparks, photograph Trashbag/Wikimedia Commons, so what is so different about a airpark? well the roads for one thing, they are exceptionally wide, so two aircraft can safely pass each other going in opposite directions, and as you might expect road signs and mailboxes are also positioned unusually low to the ground, to avoid getting clipped by the wings of the airplanes, but airparks are not just pilots and airplane enthusiasts, one Cameron Airpark Estates resident recently told Insider Magazine that about 50% of their community is made up of car enthusiasts who love the extra large garages, because they can fit their entire car collection in them, 

while there are around 640 residential airparks in the world, according to the niche site "Living with Your Airplane," Cameron Airpark Estates is said to be one of the nicer ones, the only home there currently for sale on Zillow costs $1.5 million, I can see the savings in paying rent to keep your aircraft at a airport, but there is one thing I that would concern me, that is if someone in our street had a partially late or early start, aircraft are not quiet, at all, and imagine the noise if your neighbour has a warbird!
