Default Jet Fields in New York

Hi Guys.
I am ready to fly my Skymaster F-18 Chippy Ho (see my thread on RCU). I will primarily be flying my jets at meets since there are no fields in my area suitable for jet flying. Anyone know of a field within a 4 hour drive of Rochester New York that I could visit for a test flight? I wanted to get this jet flown before my first meet in June.....Bay of Quinte in Bellville Ontario.

Thanks!!
Dom

We have a GREAT field in Brooklyn NY....1500 x 300 runway!! Perfect to test fly your jet....Im not sure how far rochester is, but from White plains, NY its about a 45 to 60 minute drive. We have about 15 jet pilots who fly there.

HI Tommy.
Is that floyd Bennett Field?
NYC is about 8 hours from Rochester. Definitely an overnighter.
