We came in yesterday and found this revitalized airport already up and running strong. Good runway and parking apron, plus plenty of amenities. We got a warm welcome, and the new owners have a lot of exciting plans.

I went out to meet friends who were flying in, but the airport was closed up and totally locked down. No NOTAM. No signs that explained a thing. No way onto the ramp. NOT COOL.

Wow this airport finally got some care. They have totally redone it. New extended runway. 4000ft (ForeFlight is not updated yet take a few months) nice big clean bathrooms open 24/7. Also the airport managers phone number is wrong here. Use phone number +1 (704) 497-9824 for Mettea. She is wonderful. Very helpful. Also not listed is they have 100LL fuel truck and will have Jet A fuel soon. New truck on site. The personnel here was good to me as I had a large Icon A5 trailer to park onsite.
