June 17, 2026I'm 53 and have never posted a review, good or bad. I landed at KMDH around 5:45pm on June 15 and was met by the nicest, most helpful tower gentleman, who really went above and beyond to assist me. Carbondale better do whatever it takes to keep this gentleman happy!! The line guys were spot on too!!

November 3, 2025Tower very accommodating and simple to work with. Flightline and Enhanced staff are fine. Got my clients biplane in a hangar overnight. No crew car available currently! Apparently some flight school kids crashed the one belonging to Flightline. Real bummer and PITA because UBER is not getting any drivers and Lyft seems to be prohibited in this area. Good spot with reasonable fuel and a hangar, but getting around seems to be a challenge.

October 24, 2025Tower and personnel were quite nice. Landed here on a Sunday evening at 1800, ZERO good method to get u to town, no car rental, no crew car, Uber is sketch (at best). Recommend for a quick fuel stop, an overnight stay (at the end of a long day of travel), not so much
