Northeast Destinations
I'm taking a few days next month to visit some places in the Northeast
U.S. Anyone have recommendations on "not-to-be missed" airports? The plan is to do some underwing camping, so things fitting that bill would be most appreciated. Thanks all. |

Not sure about the camping part, but some great spots to hit are...
ACK(Nantucket, MA) MVY or 1B2(Martha's Vineyard, MA) BHB(Bar Harbor, ME) IWI(Wiscasset, ME) BID(Block Island, RI) CQX(Chatham, MA) PVC(Provincetown, MA) MTP(Montauk, Long Island, NY) You can get details on all these airports off Airnav.com.

You could probably camp at IZG. The airport is now unattended and there's
lots of nothing around it. There are canoe outfitters a mile or so away that could set you up for a very scenic trip. Machiasport, MVM, way down east had a motel (The Bluebird, I think) walking distance from the airport and there was a good seafood restuarant within walking distance. There is a CAP post on the airport. You could probably camp there but you might ask them if you can find a contact. The trip down the coast that far is really worth while. I'm not sure any of these rate "Not to be missed" but they are good bets. -- Roger Long "Darrell Clay" wrote in message om...
