September 29, 2025Good people, fine location. Be careful Foreflight's charges for a fast turn are not correct. $250 charge for a quick turn in a single Turboprop. Foreflight indicated the charge for that type was only going to be $50. Live and Learn!

September 14, 2025I did want to add to my prior remark that the airport and fbo is fine, and I got in and out quickly with good assistance.

August 14, 2025Airport has become outrageous--have come there several times in past years and been fairly priced even during ND football games. Not so last weekend, after buying 180gal of jet A that was fairly priced along with $75 per night parking fee, a $500 event support fee was added for my meridian. Won't be back!
