    curious as to where in the states the Massachusetts bases fly to and also internationally where do they fly to?.

      If you will go to the website and look under Space-A Information you will see the most common places where both the MA bases fly.

    Comment : Hanscom is near Bedford, MA, not New Bedford, MA. New Bedford is a different part of the state.

      I went back to double check and it seems you are correct. I have never been there and was only copying information that I found online. I also see that Hanscom is a “non-flying” base. I’ll have to look more into the base. Thanks for letting me know.
