Posted: February 8th, 2010

WATERFORD, Mich. ? Officials say singer Wayne Newton owes a Detroit-area airport more than $60,000 after abandoning his plane more than three years ago. Oakland County International Airport President Joe Borgesen says the plane, once worth about $2 million, was flown into the airport to have interior work done that took about a year to complete. He said Newton initially paid storage fees. Borgesen estimates moving the plane would cost about $30,000. A woman who answered the phone at Erin Miel Inc., the entertainment company owned by Newton, told The Oakland Press on Wednesday she is aware the plane is at the airport but provided no further information.
