That would be nice. Today I flew into Pine Mountain Lake airport (E45)
today. Near the end of the taxiway was a sign
saying *no runups beyond this point*. Obviously a noise abatement procedure.
Behind the sign was a private taxiway leading to a couple of huge homes,
each with one or two planes parked out front. No homes without planes were
in sight.
Just kind of funny. Dont get me wrong, this is a really neat airport, on a
beatiful site in the foothills of the Sierra's. The Corsair Cafe on the
field has good food and everyone was very friendly.

It is a public bench on a public airport. I first learned about it from
people (non-pilots) who hike the Bay trails and love to watch planes with
their kids.

Why can't these people buy up all the houses around airports?
