March 13, 2026Just to clarify my earlier comment about fuel prices, I meant the fuel was cheaper per gallon than what you usually see at most airports.

February 9, 2026The airport has new management now. The city took it back from the former FBO operator. Jeremy is the new manager and he looks genuinely set on bringing the airport’s reputation back up where it should be. I’d call the quarters average, maybe a touch better than average, for a small local airport. Fuel was priced more than fairly.

August 7, 2025Steer clear of this location. Fuel is usually out of stock, sometimes without any warning, forcing you to pay a $500 ramp fee. Unfriendly personnel. Filthy FBO. No rental car business will leave vehicles because of bad communication from the FBO based on what the local enterprise office said. This is a spot where you question how anyone involved keeps their position and who oversees the running of things.
