Well, buying land wouldn't help so much.  You can sort of do that by 
building rails there, with junctions to prevent roads from crossing them.  
However, that does not prevent people from bridging over them, nor would 
buying land do that.  But to build an airport, you need to "own" all the 
airspace above it, or at least 10 or 15 units of height.

So even if you could buy the land you wouldn't necessarily be able to 
upgrade your airport...
