John Wayne Airport (SNA), Santa Ana CA - November 4

Rating - 10.0

What a great airport to fly out of. First it is located about 10 minutes from Newport Beach, lots of gas stations along the way to fill the car, easy to get into and easy to return car. Short lines at security, lovely terminals - wide, clean bathrooms, and lots of restaurant choices.

Really weird to fly out of....they cut the engines after a near vertical lift-off for noise reduction....

Only wish I lived here!
