Travolta in Airport Trauma

High-flying John Travolta is in an uproar over an airport near his $8 million home in Florida. Travolta contends he was lied to(!) by owners of the Greystone Airport near Ocala, Fla., because they didn't want him to land his Boeing 707 there.

In a lawsuit filed Wednesday, the new Mrs. Edna Turnblad claims that Greystone owners James and Christine Garemore falsely told Travolta that they couldn't accommodate his jumbo jet. It's so tough owning your own plane!

Travolta says he used to use the Greystone airport all the time, but in 2006, the Garemore's changed the airport's master record to indicate that large planes could no longer land there. The Garemores cite deteriorating runway conditions as a major reason for the change.

But Travolta isn't buying it.

Said Michael J. McDermott, Travolta's attorney, "It's spin in order to cover his butt because he knows that he is in big trouble for doing what he did, and we intend to establish that."

77. The new version of Hairspray pales in comparison to the original with Divine, Debbie Harry, Sonny Bono and Rikki Lake. I say, save your money and rent the original.

81.
I would like to know the reason John's lawyers believe it is, If the reason the owners gave is not in their minds the truth. .
Some of you attack John Travolta 's body and or belief's when a law suit is the topic. I realize it's difficult for some to stay on topic but it seems overly juvenile..
TMZ attempts to play puppet master by purposely placing photo's like this one, Does not mean you have to follow their expectation. Surprise them once in while.

87. I remember years ago, when I lived in the L.A. area, managing Vic Tanny studios for the Baratta brothers, John Travolta made a comment about how he would sell his soul to the devil if he could "make it " in the movie business while doing porno films. I guess he's right "on target" ????

89. I think we can all agree savanna is an idiotic moron, now can we get back to topic? Travolta is generally pretty nice guy. There is probably more to the story we don't know.

90. Travolta is Right, even Greystone Airport (aka Jumbolair) original owners had 3 707's according to jumbolair.com so the field was designed for this size aircraft. what is he to do? just dump his multi million dollar aircraft, AFTER he has been allowed to land and build there? although 707's are LOUD and that got him chased out of Spruce Creek
