John Travolta sues airport owners
Published Saturday, Jul 21 2007, 14:09 BST | By Daniel Kilkelly
John Travolta is suing the owners of a private airport close to his Florida home.
The Saturday Night Fever actor claims that Greystone Airport owners James and Christine Garemor lied to stop him from flying his Boeing 707. The couple changed the airport's records in 2006, alleging that the runway was not suitable for large aircraft, a claim which Travolta believes to be false.
Travolta has an $8 million home within the Jumbolair Aviation Estates in Ocala, and claims that he had previously been able to use the nearby runway without being challenged. He wants the Garemores to withdraw the 2006 report and allow his flights to continue as before.
"Mr. Travolta has been severely mistreated as a consequence of these acts and intends to vigorously pursue all appropriate legal recourse against these responsible parties," his attorney explained.
James Garemore insisted: "The runway is not suitable for heavy aircraft. It is cracking and breaking. They are bringing this lawsuit against me and all I was doing was trying to maintain safety here."
