Airport Restaurant
Ocala is a great field to fly into with always friendly service. It has an not-so-busy ILS so instrument ops are great to practice here. The Airport restaurant is great and there is no landing fee. Simply taxi up and get some great food!
Restaurant!
The airport restaurant is great at KLAL. The food portions are more than enough for you to eat and have some to stash in the baggage compartment! The service and food is excellent and there are headsets at each table to listen on freq. while over-watching the field. Great option to fly into!
Caution: Restaurant hours are odd so double check before you fly in!
HiJackers!!
HiJackers is my all time favorite place to fly and get food. Its about an hour from anywhere in Central Florida. The shrimp burger and Coconut shrimp are better than 5 star quality and the view of the pattern in addition to great service make this a must go for your flight plan! Also, the tower is a plus at KFIN, controllers are very professional and helpful. Great Destination airport!
Lunch Buffet
Seriously some of the best home cooking, all you can eat food around. Even more so at a nice airport with great service. $8 all you can eat; what could be better! Great GA 100 dollar "hamburger" flight!
Easy stop for fuel and food in walking distance

Thank You

Blimp Ride
KLIZ
It was always a tough and long approach as a TACAN APP 17,000 ft, at PQI decent and right turn to RWY-1 and winters are much harder.

HUGE AIRPORT
But for connecting flights
Great Saturday Pancake Breakfast!!!
Went to the monthly pancake breakfast at Modesto. It's on the second Saturday of every month. Some aircraft are on display so families can check out the planes after the breakfast. 6 bucks for a lot of good food. Not a bad deal at all. Controllers are also some of the friendliest I've ever heard, made me feel welcome!
Will be back!

re: Raytheon Heliport does not exist
The FAA still shows the heliport as active. They also show the location as "Estimated", so it's likely to be in those office buildings nearby. But this wouldn't be the first time nobody bothered to notify them when a private airport/heliport went away.
Raytheon Heliport does not exist
Raytheon no longer has offices nearby, and in any case, the location given for this heliport is a residential neighborhood.
29NC
This private airstrip has been deactivated at this location. 29NC has been reassigned to a private strip near Hillsborough, NC.

Pilot's License
Sanford I where, under the tutelage of Tommy Savage, learned to fly and obtained my Private Pilot License.
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?
Very Nice Airport and Owner
Visited this airport earlier this fall.
Very convenient to downtown and very helpful owner
No Longer Operational
A farmer bought this property and never bothered to go through the process of getting it changed to a non operational status. The landing strip has been tilled and is used as farm ground.
Great stop
Great fuel prices, great lounge, bunk beds, and a great van. Please take advantage I tell them how nice it is.
Great Little Airport!
Stopped in there on Saturday 9/26/15 for a BBQ they were having which we were told about at the Gettysburg Airport pancake breakfast. Everyone there was so nice and friendly. It felt like someone was having a BBQ in their backyard and Oh, by the way, we have an airport here too. They were even giving free plane rides.
Looks like a great place to have a house and have your plane in your own hangar at home.
No Longer Valid
This reservoir is no longer listed as a valid seaplane base.
FBO
The FBO is still run by FlightLevel, but is now located in the former base ops building (aka the old control tower) at the north end of the runway.
is this really an airport
We were flying from Huntington to Indiana last week and stopped at Vinton County for the first time since Manyak took care of the place. I used to fly into this airport a lot and was shocked at what I found. There are people, as far as I can tell, actually living at the airport. There's garbage and dirty clothes everywhere and it looks like a clubhouse or something. Part of the ceiling had collapsed. My wife said it was actually frightening to go into what is left of the terminal. And don't even ask about the smell.
Pilots 'n Paws
This airport is very PnP friendly and can board animals overnight if necessary. Also give fuel discount on PnP flights.
re: Confirmation?
Reply to @Crimson_Dej: This is the location the FAA has for the heliport.
Confirmation?
Can anybody actually confirm the location of this heliport? This location appears to be in someones backyard.
Closed
Airport is closed. Use KPCW.
Great little town
Trees at one end need trimming.
Great little airport and town. Quiet. Courtesy car..
Great little air park
If looking for a getaway air park where you can boat, fish and hunt try here.
Neat location
One of the nicest all grass facilities I have ever seen. Recently visited for the Waco fly-in.
Tie-down fees at Millionaire
For a Piper Cherokee-sized plane, the tie-down fee is now $40/night, first night waived with at least 15 gal fuel purchase. Still a good deal for the NY area.
Jet Systems is now Signature West
I just talked to them, and there's still no charge for clearing customs there in a small single-engine piston plane, as long as you're not picking up or dropping off passengers. +1-914-428-3730
Tampa Bay Aviation - KCLW - Clearwater Airpark
Wanted to note the Airpark-KCLW has no ATC and only operates until 11 Pm and reopens at sunrise the following day..
Best Airport in the Bay Area for GA
In my opinion, this is the best airport in the Bay Area for general aviation aircraft. There is a 24 hour self service 100LL fuel, and Jet A is available 24 hours if you call ahead. If you don't call ahead for Jet A, the hours are 8AM to 8PM daily. The tie downs at transient parking are really cheap. 10 bucks a night for a single engine piston and 20 bucks a night for twins and jets. If there is not someone in the office inside the terminal, there is still a way to get ahold of one of the airport ops personal! There is a white box with a red button next to the window of the airports ops office in the terminal. Hold that red button down and when you hear a "beep" talk into the white box and your message will come through one of the airport ops's walkie talkies. ATC is always nice here, and if you don't know where your going, they are always glad to assist you. So if you own a small twin piston (C421) like me, avoid the ridiculous parking and ramp fees and San Jose International Airport KSJC and fly 5 miles south to Reid Hillview Airport KRHV and you will see the differences in quality, and the people there actually care about you unlike KSJC. Sometimes, there are people that marshall your aircraft and chalk your airplane for free if your a transient pilot! Just be sure to fly in IFR so they know you're coming :)
AWESOME SERVICE
