Brad Pitt is reportedly planning to build an airstrip close to the grounds of his and Angelina Jolie's luxury property in France so the superstar family can avoid run-ins with paparazzi at airports.

The couple and their six children reside in the sprawling Chateau Miraval estate whenever they are in the country, but are often hounded upon their arrival and departure by eager snappers.

So Pitt and Jolie, who has a private pilot's license, have decided to look into buying land surrounding their property to build a secluded airstrip to jet in and out of France in privacy, according to New York Post's gossip column PageSix.

A source tells the publication, "One thing he loves about the estate is the privacy it affords. Nobody can get near it. So with Angelina completing her pilot's license, their own airstrip would give them total freedom to come and go."
