Great FBO
Spent 4 days visiting area.
No charge for tiedown
Friendly airport
I’ve never seen so many people hanging out at a GA field!
Agree on the hard to find
I also could not easily find this airport until I was right over it
Amazing
Nice airport.
nestled in the valley
great location but keep an eye on the surrounding hills
helpful ATC (fast talkers)
This was my first x-country solo. I made it within 15 nm and took a weird turn to the SW for some reason. Unsure of the area and no familiar landmarks/waypoints. ATC got me back on track. :)
Great Airport
Line service was very friendly and helpful. Had to emergency land here due to ice and Approach was a life-saver!
friendly and welcoming for GA traffic
night landing, no problem
Slippery Rock Airport... ;-)
Great airport for flying into SRU. My son went there, Airport staff always great. Parachuting at the west end though
Hard to find
I don't know why. Maybe because everything on the ground in that area looks like a stripe of some sort, it was a hard to find airport.

An easy going airport.
Great Place!
Super nice airport privately owned by a local farmer open to public. Both 100LL and Jet A available. Hangered the plane 3 night $10 per night!

Neat little airport!

I did my initial flight training here and took my private check-ride here. That was when Heritage Aviation, LLC existed. Dave Hall was a great instructor.

First Airport I visited as a student pilot.
IATA code confirmation please?
I just added the IATA code ESP to this airport, and I'm not 100% sure. IATA code lookup shows ESP assigned to "Birchwood-Pocono" in East Stroudsburg, which has been closed since 1996: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birchwood-Pocono_Airpark) However, a few non-authoritative sources have ESP assigned to this airport (do a Google search for "N53 ESP"). Can anybody please confirm this change?

Great Airport
This is the where I earned my PPL. It is home to one of the best FBO's in the northeast.. Great place to learn to fly!
Not What I Expected
I landed but there was no jetway to main terminal - or in this case an old house that looked like something out of Green Acres. I waited for my luggage to arrive but apparently there was no ground crew working that day. Coming from Indiana, I am accustomed to things being a little "backward", but I was not prepared for my encounter with the owner of the airport - CCP. I was wanting to get on my way but he kept going on with stories about meeting Mohammed Ali, and drinking Aquavit with Victor Borgia, and slam jamming some kinda vertical banjo at some German place in his old college town... he went on and on about his boyhood life and adventures in Norway, and cliff diving off the coast of Fredonia, and all the girls he fell in love with and on and on and on and on..... aiy yi yi!!!

Glider landing options
Glad to discover Yarrow (28PA). It's always good to have landing out options in view! Thanks for keeping this airstrip operational. I'll watch for it from the air.
approach
interesting place. Surrounded by mountains - approach carefully. Slope up hill on 28 like a ski jump. Nice FBO - odd in the middle of nowhere. People came out in a hurry b/c they thought the pump was broken. Stopped for fuel on the way home. I'd stop again.
airport upgrades
The airport is currently closed getting new lights a new beacon and a new awos system. The airport also received a new piece of snow removal equipment last year . Keep up the good work Mr. Roman!!!!
Fuel Prices
there fuel prices are outrageous there asking $4.60 for 100LL and $4.25 for jet Fuel. Why arent they all arested and put in jail for price gouging.
airport management
who is the manager of the hazleton airport. Do they have an advisory committee. if they have either it appears useless. I have never seen an airport that size that is in such poor standards. no quality no lites no management my future business? I dont think so!
weekday line service
the line serviceman during the week appears nonexistent. no one answers the radio no one comes out to greet you and if you can find the employee in question he is usually asleep.
Signage for new helicopter
Any need for signage pertaining to the newly stationed helicopter ?
If so contact, Jeff Stewart at Howard Industries in Erie. We'll be glad to help.

re: KCXY
Great airport, great service and great customer service personnel. An airport you have to give a try
re: KCXY
Reply to @TwinCoFlyer: That's great news! There were too many horror stories from UFS-Aero.
KCXY
Everybody should know that the FBO at CXY has been replaced. CXY Aviation is the new FBO. UFS-Aero is gone and thankfully so. NOW THERE ARE NO RAMP FEES, NONE. THERE IS STILL A LANDING FEE WHICH IS WAIVED FOR FUEL PURCHASES OR ANY OTHER SERVICES DONE BY ANY OF THE BUSINESSES ON THE FIELD. There are new hangers built and available. There are other maintanence shops. "Aircraft Maintanence Services" and "Wings and Things" to mention two. The new FBO is developing a new flight school and other facilities. Fuel is once again competitively priced. The Tower personal are great and very helpful. Give KCXY a try and I believe that you will not be dissatisfied.
Thanks for your consideration.
This Airport no longer exists

The Motel and airport was sold a year or two ago and has been removed and replaced with a Travel Trailer sales display space. So Airport no longer exists.
