12 miles and (usually) 25 minutes.
If I get caught in Atlanta rush hour(s), up to an hour....

How far do you live from your plane and how long do you typically spend
driving to get there?

I live a little more than 6 miles from the hangar (by car). It's
about a 15-20 minute drive.

I have been thinking about the drive to the airport lately and how nice it
would be to live a little closer. I have a brother that is also a pilot

and
he lives about 4 miles from his plane. Mine is more like 25 road miles

away
and requires a half hour drive. That really makes a difference when you
are working on the plane and remember you left something at home that is
needed for the current job.

This got me curious about the situation that others have. So, how about

it?

I, like many others, so it seems, have a 25 t5o 30 min

drive to my plane. There is an airport 5 min away,but for
many reasons doesn't work out.

I am in the same situation as Bob.

An airport 10 minutes away but my plane is 50 minutes.

Any truth to the saying "the further away the boat, the more you use it"?
