Mot much info yet, but as a general rule, you don’t get a lot of large planes or advanced military stuff at Hanscom. Helicopters, private jets, that sort of thing. It’s more of a small civilian airport than military, though, of course, it is a military base.
There is more there than you think. I work and live in the flight path and we get occasional very large aircraft landing there.
My wife and I were hanging out outside the fence waiting to watch a plane take off and we I saw a 747 parked down there (not Air Force One)
I work in a trailer off of a main building, and I am only one of a handful of people who have a real, honest to goodness window I can actually open to the air.
I used to work in military aviation so my face is constantly to the sky when I hear planes. Military stuff sounds so different from commercial stuff.
I saw a few planes fly over that were variants of 707s, (possibly JSTARS) I have seen KC-135s, and I recall seeing a B-52 land there.
Just yesterday, something really big came in low, and I didn’t catch a sight of it.
I love living around planes.
“you dont get a lot of . . .advanced military stuff at Hanscom”
Actually, you do, or you did, maybe not a lot, but more than you’d think. So advanced it’s not in production yet. There’s an Air Force/DOD research laboratory right next to it.
