You’re right! I forgot we have a corner of a runway. I live in Concord directly under the one of the current approach path, yeah. My husband is a pilot out of Hanscom.

There is no way that a red line expansion to Hanscom (hah) would be blocked by Concord NIMBYs, since it wouldn’t touch Concord in any way. It’s Arlington, Lexington, and Bedford that you’d have to deal with first.

I would happily take the red line all the way from Concord, by the way.

And you’d have to knock down like four Bedford neighborhoods and the entire HAFB if you wanted to ever turn Hanscom into a Bravo airport.
