Exploring John Travolta's Airport Home
John Travolta's home near Ocala, Florida is part house and part airport terminal — literally. Travolta is an avid aviator, and his aircraft collection includes a pristine Boeing 707 that he's restored in the livery of a vintage Quantas Airliner:
Naturally, he likes to be close to his airplanes — who doesn't? — which is why he's configured his home to provide easy access to the planes... and a nearby runway. Can you imagine? Wake up, grab some breakfast in the kitchen, and then stroll out the driveway and into your private 707... while still in your bathrobe and slippers!
Frankly, we might have gone with a more stylish design for the covered jetports --something sort of Googie, perhaps? On the other hand, the main house includes a small control tower, and that's always in fashion.
Anyhoo, an intrepid explorer recently took a drive through Travolta's aero-compound, and returned with some video footage. The quality isn't great, nor is the spelling, but that's not really the point, is it?
