We are a regional health center, a state university and 6 private universities, KRAFT, a regional law enforcement bunch, a federal prison trucking companies, Army aviation repair depot, the list goes on.

REcapture also is tough with big capital items you buy for your business Like your airplane.. that one sneaks up on a guy.. and there is a big reason that the successful real estate company that has private aviation will usually move up … and if they do sell they have massive recapture so you want to sell that airplane in a down market when you have so loss carry backs to off set.. did this in 2009 post crash we sold one airplane that had I not had some loss carry backs would have been 100k plus to pay tax on .. 

My background is in commercial aviation and I so enjoy flying and traveling to destinations all over the world with my family.

Besides building I have an aviation business also, most airline pilots I work with stay in hotels that their airline has deals worked out with.   

@Brian Burke  Brian and I share a love of aviation and  I think some mutual respect other than that we are not doing deals together either. 

I was aviation/avionics my whole career including the Army. 

I've done work for defense contractors and am now in aviation.  

Aviation insurance is super expensive or unobtainable.  

On another note from the aviation world.. the Austin Center had their computers in the basement.. basement flooded  ATC went down... so you had the airlines having to resort to flying like little guys.. flying VFR patterns and calling out their postions on the common radio frequencies which is NOT very common for them.Also departures were old school once an airliner was in the que and number one for take off they had to get on their cell phones and call Houston center for their IFR clearance.. this is what happens in non radar environments.. but its a testament to our aviation system that when tech goes down we can keep flying.. albeit like its 1950 but we keep going

Take a look at the budget for a commercial airport, from the city aviation department, or port authority, or whoever runs it.
