Came in for a weekend at UofR. Everyone was friendly and courteous. ATC was good. Avflight was good, I did not feel that their fees were too much. A fine experience all the way around.

For a small (and not very busy) commercial airport, this is one of more GA unfriendly airports I've observed. One FBO has tiedowns in the grass for $40/ evening, another has tiedowns on the tarmac nowhere near the FBO for $45 a night. Hangars are incredibly high. It seems like the airport exists to serve the employees rather than patrons. I've been here 3 times and had multiple bad experiences with having my nose pant dinged up in my Lancair. I stay at Leroy and simply absorb the long Uber ride.

First time going to KROC we are in CYOO. Customs on the phone was a little tough but the customs guys were fantastic. They come right to AVFlight. The FBO was good also quick and friendly plus CAA.
