Go to Meridian, they're the most non-jet friendly FBO, plus you wont be paying $8 for gas...always my choice, Anthony at the front desk is a realy nice guy and will go out of his way to help you out. There is a gigantic picture of the Dalton departure on the wall in the flight planning room

One other "gotcha" can be the mandatory 1500' crossing of Dandy on the ILS to 6. You might be tempted to fly the glide slope down from 2000' once cleared the ILS, but you are required to descend on the Loc to cross Dandy at 1500', and then intercept the glide slope.

Just an update because you guys all helped me out.
Flew the flight yesterday.
Going there was pretty standard, actually got a een agnez coate routing at first at 16K but we had a more than 100 knot headwind so we talked them into a reroute in the air over gdm. We had to drop to 10k then 9 over hfd but it gained us over 50 knots in groundspeed.
Vectors to VOR 24, it was an approach, not much to say about that. Since it was 24 it was just a right turn into parking so easy setup.
Meridian treated us well, I called ahead for a limo which was waiting for us and they waived the 75 dollar fee with 30 gals of fuel. I was told by another pilot it was a 50 fee waived with 15 gal purchase but that is apparently old news.
Going out was given brezy 39 cmk and up through hfd which I expected with the TEB6 I believe. The one thing that caught me off guard was we started up and called for taxi and where told to start engines in 30 minutes and monitor ground. I can see why but there was no mention of that on atis, I suppose im just used to EWR where on initial contact they will tell you or they will run flow control.
Against my better judgment I decided to go to plan B and launch VFR which got us to the runway and number 2 for departure. It was an immediate left turn off 19 to the northeast and remain clear of bravo. It was a mess over there because there was I believe a 1300' shelf, a 1500' shelf and 1800' shelf and finally a 3000' shelf. We ended up low level around 1400 for most of it and over the hudson for a bit. I am never a fan of VFR in the NYC airspace but it did save us 35 or so mins which is significant when you are talking about a 50 minute flight.
Thanks for the info though guys, you all helped out as usual. It was a non event and was just an airport but I think it always helps to be armed with as much info as you can since the last thing anyone needs these days is certificate action for messing something simple up.
