I prefer a straight HOG than one with endless horror stories and overdone graphics/effects. However, this was quite juvenile, so it's too much the other direction. Not really for me.

I really like it, but I am finding it really HARD. The graphics are first rate, and the nature of the game is great, but MAN...I get rained on at every level!!

It's possible you don't have a road actually connected to the airport. I had the same problem, and discovered that in my zeal to create gorgeousness, I had failed to put a road far enough out.
