Located about 20 miles northwest of Boston, Hanscom Field has been a major factor in local aviation since 1940, when the Commonwealth of Massachusetts acquired 500 acres of land in the towns of Bedford, Concord, Lexington and Lincoln. The airport was turned over to the Army Air Corps in 1941 and was named the Laurence G. Hanscom Field, in honor of the late Laurence G. Hanscom, a founding member and commander of the Massachusetts Wing of the Civilian Air Reserve, a group interested in military photography and map-making. Military operations dominated until it became a joint military and civilian facility in the 1950’s. By 1959, the Massachusetts Port Authority was then formed and assumed control of the state land. In 1974, general operations and maintenance of the airfield became the responsibility of Massport and military operations declined to occasional use. Hanscom has since been managed as a regional aviation facility, whose major users are a mix of commuter/commercial air services, corporate aviation, private pilots, flight schools, some charters and light cargo.
