9NC0 is in Charlotte, though, right?

I think the correct designation for Raleigh East is W17, at least per flightaware, airportguide, and airnav.

Those 3 sites also show 9NC0 as being in Charlotte.

Great controller

Dealt with a storm popping up over the field right before takeoff, when we finally did depart the controllers really helped navigate the cells

Just getting started, where is the map legend, I'm trying to figure out what the symbols on the map mean...

Active and friendly

One of the most active and welcoming small GA airports you'll find. Take one of the multiple courtesy cars for lunch or to the nearby beach. Two extremely good maintenance shops, avionics shop, helicopter and fixed wing flight schools, skydiving, Hertz onsite, even a real estate broker and a bait and tackle shop onsite! "How can we make your day better?" Is more than a slogan!

This is the first scheduled service at the airport. The airport is also known as the home of the NASCAR Air Force with many teams using the airport each week. Many General Aviaiton piliots say airport has the friendliest and most unique air traffic controllers around. Tower open from 7 AM to 11 PM

Airport is owned and operated by the City of Concord who also operates the FBO. Worldfuel is the fuel supplier under the Phillips 66 Aviation brand.

Interesting article

http://www.airlinereporter.com/2014/02/the-boneyard-of-the-east - this is evidently one of the few airliner salvage yards in the eastern United States.

Fun fly in

When reading comments from Anonymous posters, one should probably consider the source. Except, you can't. Because it's anonymous, likely for good reason. 57Alpha Cafe is alive and well, open for business, and this airport is a great day trip destination. We had a wonderful experience there last weekend, beautiful area… support GA!

Great Self Service Prices

First time that I arrived to buy gas that the price was LESS than advertised.

Great facility, nice lunch restaurant.

Easy quick turn.

Great Service

Landmark Aviation has a very well trained courteous and efficient staff

Rented a car from Hertz on premises. They had car brought right to plane minutes after we shut down !!

That is what I call service !!!

A picturesque airport, to say the least! Didn't drop to pattern altitude until final. No problems taking off 25 on an August day in my cherokee 180, but I see your point...

This is a most friendly little airport. The owner does request you not depart when the runway is very soft, though.

re: Leading Edge Aviation

Reply to @SPAflyer:

Not anymore, he ran the FBO in the ground with his "business skills", and the county decided to let him run it when they took over. Ain't inbreeding grand?

Good Fuel Prices

Stopped in here in December 2009 -- 100LL was under $4.00/gal. City/County run airport with no fuel competition. Busy airport with nice terminal facilities. Lots of NASCAR customers. No restaurant at the airport, but the do have crew cars. TSS

FBO... Friendly With No Frills

Stop in regularly for business... no ramp fees unless overnight. 100LL fuel prices are so-so.

First Flight Airport

You won't see the runway until on final, but the Wright Memorial is easy to see and about 300 yd east of the runway.

Rolling out on 2 or 20 you are about 500ft from where it all began in December 1903. Every pilot should land here. A literally awesome place.
