I've been using this FBO several times/year since 2002. The service is consistently excellent.

Arrived around 6PM from Manassas VA and was worried that I had missed my rental car (they closed at 6) but the folks at Flight Level had the car waiting, provided great service and took great care of me. I'll be back.

Nice facility, very nice staff, easy to get to, thought the fuel price was 50 cents a gallon to high--used to paying $4.43 in Princeton, 39N.

We flew in here yesterday (8/16). Before the flight, I called them and asked for a taxi. When we landed, the taxi was already there, very nice arrangements from the FBO. The place is so pleasant, nice, and clean, the service was excellent. The controllers were so nice and friendly; the airport is in a very good shape. This was my first time here, flew in before to Bedford, MA, but from now on I'll choose this airport to my Boston GA airport. The train station is close-by, I was very satisfied with everything. Thank you!

Good service. I was here for four nights. I needed some minor maintenance for one of my GPS units. They repaired it very quickly and very reasonably. Because I had some maintenance done and had a top off, they waived all four nights tie down. It was a pleasure.

FlightLevel's Tyler and Lauren gave us cheerful, prompt service--to add oil, their techs had to free up a cross-threaded cap, which they did at no charge. Our Diamond DA40 was topped as requested for a next day departure. Norwood offers great Boston access via the nearby commuter rail: Anjou Cab will run you to and from the station.

I've used both Bedford and Norwood to fly into the Boston area, and Norwood is a better alternative for piston pilots. Gas prices are better, and they don't force you to wrap a chain around your prop or access the ridiculous Massport fees that make Bedford a more expensive stop. It's compact and easy to get around, and they have a great restaurant on the field.

We arrived Fri mid-day in for a weekend family visit. On our way, our Warrior's vacuum pump failed. The FlightLevel staff were able to make repairs in time for our departure Sun. Great service and support for a little guy! Thanks.

We had a great experience with this FBO! They brought our rental car out to us; even helped us unload our C182 and load the car! Reasonable rates. Great service. Friendly people! Good location. We will stop here again!

I appreciate Len's response on my issues. I am even more impressed that he reached out to me personally to express his regrets at the situation. It really shows a commitment to customer service. Things happen, and I will be back in the Spring.

I recently paid a visit to Eastern Air. After they refueled my plane, I found a large amount of water in both tanks. There was more water in the tanks than I have drained in the entire two years I have owned the aircraft. It took seven drains to get rid of the water. When I complained to the young lady at the front counter, I was graced with a dirty look and asked if I would like to speak to a line person. The line person never showed up. I see a lot of good comments here, but I must say I am not impressed. This was my second time there and I was not impressed with the attitude of the young lady at the counter on a previous visit.
Response from Len Carroll, Eastern Air Center
We certainly extend our regrets to Mr. Baird for not making his visit to our facility as pleasant as he would have liked. We received no other reports of contaminated fuel before or after this transaction. Our standard operating policy is to "pre-flight" the refuelers every day before being put in use, which includes draining all the sumps for water and taking fuel samples for visual inspection before the truck is put in service. The fuel farm is inspected daily and part of the inspection. This day, the Sunday after Thanksgiving, was one of the busiest days of the season with everybody either returning home or going back to their home base, plus additional traffic associated with the Patriots football team playing that evening close by. We are still investigating this matter in an effort to determine where the water might have come from.

This is a well run FBO and Len couldn't be more courteous or helpful. I agree with most comments that this is the place to land when going to the Boston Area. FYI taxicab fare from Boston to Norwood is a flat fee of $50.

With the commuter rail this airport has great access to Boston. I have to agree with all the rest of the positive comments.

This is where to go when flying to Boston. Staff is prompt and efficient. Prices are reasonable - $10/night for my Beech Skipper, first night waived with a fuel purchase. If staffing permits, they will give you a lift to the commuter rail station, if not, it's a 1-mile hike. It's $5.25 for a one-way trip into Boston on the train, and if you manage to coordinate your arrival with the train schedule, not only is it MUCH cheaper than a cab, it's faster too.

Flew in on 9/5 on business and to visit some friends in the Boston area. Everybody was very nice, the service was good, and the rental car went smoothly. The FBO closes its doors sometime around 7:00PM, but I had planned to return around 9:00PM. The line guys hang around until 9:30PM so they were able to let me in, but be careful..If you get back after the line guys are gone, there is no way to get to the ramp.

Very good service here. Fuel priced as expected for a large urban area. We could only take a partial fill due to weight limitations - they got it right. We rented a car there, and came back after hours. Everything went very smoothly. In the dark, we left our Airport Guide on the wing. They located it and mailed it back. Nice people all around. This is my choice for visiting Boston. Advice: Use the 800 number on the wall in the FBO for clearance delivery after hours. We could not get flight service on the cell phone and we got an 11-part IFR clearance on climb out.

I visited family in the Boston area for about a week. This FBO made me feel like I was part of their family. The team in the tower is very GA friendly and competent. They went out of their way to get flight following even with their radar out of service. Fuel was very competitively priced for the area.

Flew in yesterday, very positive experience. I was dropping a passenger bound for Boston; they were very helpful and drove him to the train station. One note of caution -- go to the Terminal -- I went to a sign for "Eastern Air Center", went in to the office only to find I was in the wrong place! Landing to the east is a little spooky -- final is over the town! Overall, highly recommended.

We arrived at Norwood on Sunday June 17. We liked the fact that they let us tie down in a spot where we wouldn't be moved for four days. Line service fueled us and helped us unload our plane. The staff at the front desk arranged for a taxi to take us into Boston. It cost about $50 to take us into town. It was a lot cheaper than paying for parking at the hotel! It was a good place to land in the Boston area as everyone was very helpful.

Commend Eastern on great service. Called the day before to arrange rental car and due to after 9:00PM arrival, and their being closed, was provided instructions where to park and obtain rental car. Brand new rental (35 miles on it) sitting on ramp in secure area with paperwork and keys ready to go. Upon return next day took care of fuel request, bathroom, checking weather and payment for car and fuel in under 15-minutes. Traffic load low, picked up IFR clearance with wheels up in less than 15-minutes. Definitely an easy in and out airport in a major hub area. Will use them again when in Boston on business.

This is the place to go for single engine visits to Boston. Really nice folks, GREAT line service, and fuel is reasonable for the NE. The overnight charge for parking is still $10.00 a day with one day off if fuel is purchased. I do recommend pre-arranging ground transport.

Great FBO to start a Boston visit. Rental car right at counter. Visiting friends in Lexington but refused to use KBED as both Signature and Jet FBOs would not even respond to web inquiries about fees/pricing for a SEL. Eastern did respond with detailed info and even provided one night tie down free w/ meager Archer fuel purchase. Will be back.
