Gas top on the way to OSH. Really friendly and helpful folks. Bob at the FBO actually grilled lunch for us on the grill. Highly recommend.

Stopped in Wausau for fuel and to let a storm pass. Helpful service and fine courtesy car. Got lunch and visited local art museum.

I've had the chance of visiting a good many airports and FBO's, and I would rate Wausau Downtown near the top of any list. From the radio welcome to the sendoff, Manager John Chmiel and his team were friendly, sincere and helpful. John himself greets you as a fount of knowledge and history. Wausau offers much to visitors. Check them out, you won't be let down.
