Parts of Lake in the Hills still feels open and expansive, including a section of Pyott Road that's home to the Lake in the Hills Airport. Pilot Joe Sener, who uses the village-operated airport as the home base for his single-engine plane, says he loves the freedom his aircraft and the airport give him. Multiple Cessna and Piper aircraft, which are privately owned, are parked in the airport's numerous hangars. A fueling station is on site, as well as maintenance bays and a company that coordinates ground travel for folks flying into the airport. Also, Blue Skies Flying Service uses the airport as a base for its flying school. An office located in a building painted the color of a grayish blue sky has a small seating area. On a recent afternoon, a Piper Arrow sat on the airport field, as if waiting for someone to take it in the air. Later that day, a plane did take off, rumbling down the airport's single runway and coasting into a sunset sky.
