I'm sorry to read these postings about TEB. I flew a Cherokee into
(and back out of) TEB quite a few times, about twenty years ago, and
was treated very well.

In my experience of flying a single engine Bonanza into TEB several times
over the summer and fall of 2004, I have to say that any *prepared* pilot
(read: very adept at ATC comms, very familiar with the TEB airport diagram,
very familiar with TEB's departure procedures, and very familiar with all
airspaces surrounding TEB) is treated very well, or at least openly, by NY
ATC, TEB ATC, and the TEB FBOs.

Granted that fuel and parking prices are off the charts there compared to
the average FBO, but in my opinion this alone does not necessarily make TEB
unfriendly to small, GA aircraft. Heck, there is (last I knew) a flight
school with several small C15x's and 172s located right near Millionare.
That should account for something.


Of course it helps if you use the same thick Bronx accent as the controller.
