I did find that the Boston traffic was great practice for driving almost

no problem.)

I seem to remember hearing/reading that the first ever traffic ticket
written here was issued in NY for someone from MA operating their
horse and carriage on the wrong side of the street back when it wasn't
standardized.....

Finishing up my private at BED (Hanscom Field) prepared me
to fly just about anywhere that's busy, too.

Yea, friday afternoons in the summer with a bunch of student pilots
doing pattern work, the jets trying to get in and pick up or out with
weekend vacationers, and a trainee tower controller can be quite the
challenge..
