These folks utilizing private jets are probably some of the same folks vocalizing their virtuous contributions to groups in support of reducing global warming and climate change! Laughable. However, it's also just as laughable the extremes these protesters went to, breaching security to gain access to the airfield. https://www.wcvb.com/article/climate...setts/60555520

With how bad traffic is I wouldn't be surprised to see more private jets in the future.

Airspace will be the next thing to be overcrowded. All the Burlington/Bedford/Lexington area pharma CEO's will be flying in private jets to ACK after work on Thursday/Friday afternoons! lol

You know what… some protesters are just born to protest.

There was recently a discussion about electric windmills and how they hurt wales. A scientist said … yes, it’s possible, but everything hurts something. We cannot stop living and progressing. Primitive people also caused some harm.

I guess some folks don't mind getting arrested so long as their cause makes front page headlines like this did!

I fly in and out of Hanscom Field often visiting family and business using a single engine prop aircraft.Its a great airport but small pot. Aircraft will be pushed to the back and fees will increase.Anyway thats my opinion ,it's progress.

Used to Fly from Hanscom to Chatham on Sat/Sun AM for breakfast at whatever the Hanger B Eatery used to be before. Back by noon. That was a great experience.

We have had a Grumman Tiger for the past 20 years ,Nearly all the family have a license.
Ninety five percent of its use is for our business here in the Northeast.

I flew as a teen with my best friend and his retired AF Captain uncle. He rented small planes out of the Hanscom Aero Club.

Never took it beyond that and got any formal lessons, but I think I could still handle a Piper Cherokee reasonably well if needed. The only flying I do these days is RC aircraft.

Will they impose a congestion pricing plan?
