Virgil I Grissom Municipal Pilot Reviews:

Flew in a little late in the afternoon, a couple of pilots were getting gas. Struck up a conversation with them. They helped me get the pilot vehicle so I could get to the hotel that night. Very friendly and helpful group of pilots at this airport. Highly recommended airport to stop for gas or rest. I will definitely be stopping by on the way home to California.
