Yeah. I was referring to there being fewer cars on the road back then. Fewer people in the country, and people didn't have 2-3 cars in the driveway. They could only afford one. And gas was expensive, adjusting for inflation.
All that said, I found the spot on Google Earth, and the road is pretty empty today too. I guess the number of flights a day determines the amount of traffic on that airport road.
This image looks different because they added another runway overpass, and the camera is a wide angle lens, not a telephoto.
