WestLEX is an excellent FBO for small piston planes. The staff were friendly and ready to help. Use caution with wake turbulence on runways 4/22, since ATC will frequently keep smaller jets and piston aircraft closely spaced, particularly when departures and arrivals are being mixed. The services are reasonably priced, and overnight hangar space is available.

WestLex is an extraordinary FBO. Good service. Personnel were polite, professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend them if you are stopping Lexington.
