Thanks. Sounds like it's between HPN and LDJ as to which is the best
option for me. Does anyone who flies into LDJ have any guidance on the
local approach procedures? Do you just stay clear of the Class B, or
do you get a clearance from Newark?

I don't fly into LDJ too often, but the times that I have, it's been a
piece of cake. Call up NY Approach and get a Class Bravo clearance. At
some point, they'll hand you off to Newark Tower who will vector you until
you have LDJ in sight. The field is a little hard to spot in the urban
ground clutter. It really helps to have a GPS.

If you're coming from the north, don't be surprised if they vector you
right over the numbers of Newark's 4L & 4R at about 1000 feet at right
angles to the traffic flow. It sounds weird, but it's actually the most
out of the way place they can put you; you're above both the landing and
departing traffic. If he says "fly over the numbers", do exactly that, not
vaguely in the vicinity of the end of the runway.

On the way out, I call Newark Tower from the runnup pad, tell them I'm
departing LDJ and request a Class Bravo clearance. They'll usually give
you a squawk and tell you to remain clear of the Class Bravo at or below
800 and give them a call once you're in the air. You'll get your actual
clearance once they establish radar contact.
