5/17/2026 - New FBO putting money into the airport. Good runway and a completely new ramp area. 100LL is being delivered by truck until the self-serve setup is completed. The FBO crew was very helpful, and the fuel price was good. Daytime access is generally easy, but call the FBO for access at other hours. A solid alternative to RDU.

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.
