It was so nice the first time, I came back. Tony has set up a great facility and still charges $3.50 for 100LL. Going to have to drive here when the leaves change in a few weeks.
Response from Tony Milligan, Airport Coordinator / Asst. Manager, Town of Bethel (FBO)
Thanks again Cal for your comments and for your return visit. We're planning on having an Open House and Foliage Scenic Flights event for the public on October 17 from 10am until 4pm (weather permitting). We hope you can stop by for a flight and a cheeseburger!

One of the best maintained and equipped unattended airports we have visited. The airport building has pay as you go snacks and drinks, tie down ropes, a restroom, local information, and a computer for all your weather needs. A delightful 35 minute walk takes you across the Androscoggin River with canoe and kayak rentals and brings you to the many shops and restaurants in Bethel. Great fuel prices as well.
Response from Tony Milligan, Airport Coordinator / Asst. Manager, Town of Bethel (FBO)
Thank you Dana for your feedback. We have great pride in our airport and are committed to providing the best "self-service" experience we can offer to our customers. We're also glad you took the opportunity to explore Bethel and see what we have to offer. We looking forward to your next visit.

DigiWx Weather Advisory is available by clicking the aircraft radio microphone 3 times on the CTAF 122.9 or by calling (207) 824-0475.
Response from Tony Milligan, Airport Coordinator / Asst. Manager, Town of Bethel (FBO)
Mischa is correct. In addition to receiving VFR weather advisories from DigiWx on the CTAF, you'll also hear local NOTAM advisories if any are active for the airport. If there are any other special announcements, you can receive that information by calling the Airport Information Line at (207) 824-3100 or by subscribing for free to our e-Notices email messaging service by simply sending an email to airport@bethelmaine.org and putting the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject line.

Very nice airport for a fuel stop, still $3.50 on 7/20/09. Well worth the trip.
Response from Tony Milligan, Airport Coordinator / Asst. Manager, Town of Bethel (FBO)
Thank you very much for your comments and for visiting us at Bethel Regional. Although we are a self-serve FBO, we try the very best to offer whatever we can to make your visit a memorable and positive experience. We are particularly proud to offer aggressively priced 100LL fuel (currently at $3.50/gallon) as well as free Internet and local calls, a snack bar, restroom, and no fees for landing or parking! We look forward to serving you again real soon!

Have been flying up to ski Sunday River for a few years and its one of the best setups for fly-in skiing anywhere in the world! We were disappointed to find out that this year the Mountain Explorer (town Ski bus) is no longer making stops at the airport, "for schedule reasons" and none of the cab services were available, so we hiked over to the Nordic lodge stop. We'd love to see the airport stop added back on the route! Thanks for keeping a great airport!
Response from Deb Cayer, Mountain Valley Taxi Service
By phoning in advance the new service is set up to be waiting for you when you fly in. It runs 7 days a week year round. It should be a great way to see Bethel once you arrive.

What a great little airport with helpful staff. We flew in last week to ski after they received 18" of snow. The information available about the airport was great and I was able to reach Tony at 6:30 AM as they were fast at work clearing the runway and ramp. By the time we arrived, the runway had only patches of snow and we were able to have wonderful powder day. The 24 hr fuel and raised runway lights allowed us to have a great night flight back. This is a great fly n ski destination; we had a wonderful experience and will be back.

This spot just became an even better ski destination. I flew there today for the Sunday River 2007/2008 opening day an learned that there is now a taxi service in Bethel! This service has been badly needed by us skiing pilots for some time and here it is. The airport continues to provide plug in utilities to run the airplane tanis heater - often needed in the winter in these parts. There is rarely someone there in my experience but it's got all you need to stop in and enjoy some time in the mountains.
