I had heard all sorts of horror stories about BED but when I went there to
the Signature FBO everything was great. I usually find it best in the long
run to get a rental car as the cost is reasonable as compared to taxis and
the convenience can't be beat. Call ahead to Signature and they will have
it for you. As is my standard practice, I had the plane's tanks topped off.
There was no ramp fee, I only paid for the fuel and I was there most of the
day.

I need to make a trip to Boston soon (from NJ), and will need to get to
the
New England Medical Center for a meeting. I would appreciate tips on
best
airports, FBO's, transportation, etc. Thanks.
The Boston-area airport I'm most familiar with is BED (Hanscom Field),
which
is very GA-friendly. There's public transportation (bus, then subway) into
the city (http://www.mbta.com/index.asp), as well as taxis and rental
cars.
There's a Signature FBO, but I'm not familiar with their services since I
rent planes at Hanscom.
