Great Airport. Excellent FBO.

Love this place. The food is great upstairs. As far as all the radio chatter, I prefer it, especially knowing there is a flight school there. I like to know where all the students are.

Nice Airport, Very Nice Facilities & Friendly People. Fuel is Very Expensive. There is way too much radio chatter on CTAF. FBO called 5 times while in the landing pattern with multiple aircraft wanting to know how long I was going to stay. It sounded like a CB radio with all of the "Radio Checks" and unnecessary garble.

Great Service! Didn't need to buy fuel, they were still very friendly and went out of there way to take care of our needs. Pilot Pete's was a bonus, great food, good portions and good prices. 06C will be my Chicago "home" for whenever I need to go back to the windy city!

Usually don't give high recommendations but this place is nice. This FBO has very courteous people and Pilot Petes is a great place to eat. I will stop when I am in the area and need fuel or food. Thanks Northwest Flyers

Great service and facilities. I've been to the Chicago area at least 50 times and this is my first stop here. Definitely will be back. It's a shame they can't get an approach.

Super nice and friendly. Went for a $100 Steak (not Hamburger) to Pilot Pete's. Excellent on airport restaurant, by the way. You get your instrument clearance through an rco that dials a phone to ATC, even though ORD is only 8 miles away.

Great place. Nice facility, nice people, and no ramp fees for $100 hamburger seekers, even when only one B200 away from the door!

I fly into Schaumburg about 6 or 8 times a year and I love this FBO. Betty is the queen of the airport and she takes care of you like no other. Call them on Unicom inbound and your rental will be on the ramp with the trunk open, ready to go. Last visit, I left a bag back at my client's about 10 miles away. Betty immediately offered me her car to go retrieve it and spare the money and wait for a taxi. (Put $50 worth of gas in it, but didn't tell her.) This is a great place, and the restaurant is excellent.

My wife daughter and I flew in for lunch and a quick trip to Westfield mall. We were parked, in our rented 140, by the line staff right in front of the FBO. (Rock Star parking) We were provided the number for the cab ($16 out and $21 back) Nothing but a positive experience all around. We did not take on fuel nor were we charged any kind of landing/parking fee. I even double-checked before we left just to be sure.

Great FBO. Skip & Becky will take great care of you. Posted fuel prices are confusing--there's an additional sales tax of 8.5% on top of the "list" price. They were almost apologetic about 100LL prices--after some friendly conversation, they applied the "local" gas rate & waived the tie-down charges. I'll be back!!

Stopped in for a weekend visit to Chicago. This is a very nice FBO with extremely friendly staff. Fuel prices are higher than we are used to but on par with other metropolitan airports. They waived our tie down fees, which was unexpected. The metro train station is only 1/4 mile away from the airport and it only takes 45 minutes to get to downtown and the fare is $5. This is the best route to get to downtown without paying an arm and a leg for a taxi or parking. We were able to get flight following from Chicago approach both in and outbound. Be advised there are published noise abatement procedures in place.

In and out of 06C over the weekend. Nice to see a patch around the manhole cover at the taxi / runway transition of 29 (was a hole). Witnessed lineman yelling at a loose dog and talking on cell phone while driving, towing aircraft. (Yikes!) Got a seat by the window at the restaurant so that I could keep an eye on my aircraft while I had my $100 hamburger. Pilot Pete's is still a good stop.

I fly into 06C about 3 or 4 times a month. They have a great facility, terrific service; always ready to help. Never a problem with their line people. I would recommend this FBO anytime you are flying to Chicago area!

I frequent Schaumburg airport and it is conveniently tucked away in the Chicago suburbs. It behooves any pilot to pay close attention to the linemen at Northwest flyers, as the turnover rate is quite high. I have experienced on more than one occasion wingdings and scratches on my aircraft due to mishandled fuel nozzles. Aside from that I've had no other issues.
