...and it ends with a good punchline.

Go ahead and sell. There will be PLENTY of buyers.
 
IIRC i saw an entire airpark for sale near the phoenix area. I believe the lots had all been laid out, but no houses had been built. I am not sure if the runways were paved yet or not. Maybe Brain A knows more.
Maybe a good investment?
