Virgil I Grissom Municipal Pilot Reviews:
Brandon S.
July 7, 2026Stopped in 7/9/26 for lunch and fuel. Really good fuel stop. Pump worked fine. ATC looses contact below about 3500, so plan on getting a phone number to cancel IFR. Phone worked fine. Internet was down. Guy with the car keys was out, so when it was time for us to leave they had everything located for the loaner car. Had to keep moving. Staff was nice and helpful. Great cross runways and the runway surface was great. All in all, a great fuel stop.
Pickard, 6.
April 25, 2024Flew 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.
