Default Planes at Hanscom face turbulence caused by higher fees

The cost of flying at Hanscom Airport [BED] is soaring skyward.

As of Feb. 1, Massport has raised several fees and charges. Some
represent double-digit increases and the flying community is concerned.

"Hanscom has gone from being among the bargains in the area to one
of the most expensive airports for light aircraft to land," said John
Williams of the Massachusetts Business Aviation.

(on the other hand the port authority somewhat reduced landing fees per
1000lbs at BOS recently.)
