It seems that every pilot has a few things they’d like to do.
“One is go to the factory to pick up their brand new airplane,” said Bobby Capozzi. “The other is to have their own airport.”
Capozzi achieved that last dream, acquiring Chipola Airpark (5FL8) in Greenwood, Florida, about a year ago.
The name’s a bit misleading, Capozzi says, noting he and his wife, Kim, are the only ones who live on the private airport.
The original owner had thought at one time of developing an airpark on the 85 acres, but a downturn in the economy put an end to those plans.
