best way into D.C. ?

I need to go to northern Maryland (actually Andrews AFB) next month and am
also looking for airports close by. I need at least 3500 feet of runway for
the Baron, and would like hangar space as well.

I was thinking of Manassas- how does this compare to Dulles?

Are there any airports in northern MD that also might fit the bill?

Thanks.

Your runway eliminates any of the suburban fields south of BWI.

Maybe Easton (KESN)? - Eastern shore and drive over the Bay Bridge,
through Annapolis to Andrews. Friendly types over there and you could
avoid driving the Beltway. It's just outside the ADIZ.

Further out: Cambridge (south of ESN), KMTN (east of Baltimore)

Best of luck.

Manassas: Large. Moderately expensive. Commuter train available into DC
(limited hours, www.vre.org), connects with the Metro. No other public
transport. Taxis can be gotten, but Manassas is in the middle of nowhere.

Dulles: Huge. You can taxi for an hour to get to the runway. Very Expensive.
Vienna is the nearest Metro station. I hear there's a shuttle to the Metro,
never used it.

I don't know about hangars at either place, as I just use tiedowns. Check
airnav.com.
