I don't usually visit airports, but Millard Airport is unique. It was designed with an airplane driveway so people could park their airplanes at home and taxi them to the airport. Since 9-11 this feature has not been available and the driveway has been integrated into the backyards of the houses. The airport is ten miles west of downtown Omaha. It is in Millard which has been annexed into Omaha. They average over 60 airplane episodes a day. While I was there I only saw one.
