Default Flying near Boston


Hi Tom,

Welcome to the area. KFIT is a nice GA airport with two mechanics shops
on the field, a restaruant and a flight school. It is a non-towered airport.

Fun places to go and see, KACK, KMVY, KLEB is going to be beautiful in
about 3 wks. KSAN has a great restaurant on the field. Land long on 32
or you'll taxi on the runway for about 4000' to make the next turnoff.

Bar Harbor is only 1.5 to 1.8 away. Acadia National Park is right across
the causeway. Columbia Air Services @ KBHB are the best.

Enjoy the area.

Hi folks.

I've recently moved to the Boston area after getting my Private
certificate down in New Jersey. I'm probably going to fly out of
Hanscom (I've flown in there before and know it's busy).

I'd love to hear from people who fly in the area and have advice on fun
flights to do locally - either sightseeing or $100 burger style.

Thanks

Tom
