I want my own plane to fly to all the wonderful flyin destinations the Northeast US has to offer. For example:
Block Island, RI: In the summer on a weekend its such a great place to fly to! Land on the island in the Atlantic, park, rent a bike or moped and ride into town for some fresh seafood! Then ride around the island to sightsee, go to the beach, eat some salt water taffee. Heck book a hotel in advance and spend the night on the island drinking at the bars overlooking the water with the Rolling Stones blasting from the bars outdoor patio speakers. What a great time! Fly back the next day.
Newport, RI: Another wonderful place to fly into and spend the day and night. Many excellent seafood restaurants here as well as women! and beaches. Also a very scenic path along the Atlantic Ocean that has famous mansions along it. Good nightlife too!
Montauk, NY: Right at the very tip of Long Island! Great approach over a sand dune. The beach is 1 mile from the airport and a restaurant is very close by! Its the Hamptons! A great place to enjoy in the summer.
Marthas Vineyard, MA: Very rich island off the coast of Cape Cod with excellent bike paths, and a quaint village with shops and seafood. The beach is nice too!
Portland, ME: Great city to visit! The old port district has some great bars and restaurants. In the summer this area is packed with visitors and locals enjoying the nightlife. Old Orchard Beach is 25 mins away by rental car or cab.
West Dover, VT: In the winter this airport is nestled along the valley where there is a great ski resort. Also a restaurant nearby! Nothing better than flying with your skis in the cabin to an airport nearby a ski slope in the winter time!
The list goes on......I love the Northeast for flying! Hard to see and do it all if you are just renting all the time because you can not always overnight planes if you rent and some FBOs do not allow you to fly their planes in IFR conditions.
