Every Airport Should Be So Lucky

Willis Offers to Donate Land for Airport

HAILEY, Idaho (AP) - Bruce Willis stole the show at the Friedman Airport Authority meeting this week, offering to donate a portion of land he owns at the eastern end of Camas County in Idaho to help build a new airport.

Willis' property along Highway 20 is part of one of three sites being considered. The offer was unexpected, airport authority Chairwoman Mary Ann Mix said.

The actor, whose screen credits include the "Die Hard" movies, "Pulp Fiction" and "The Sixth Sense," pitched his plan at a meeting Tuesday.

Mix said the room erupted in applause when Willis announced his intended donation, saying he was concerned with the safety conditions at the present airport.

"Bruce is a fabulously decent man - always very concerned about what's good for his community," Mix said.

Willis owns part of the proposed site on the Camas Prairie, she said, though it wasn't clear exactly what he was offering.
