Our N900NE Turbo Commander stopped here recently and had a 'best of' experience with great fuel price, quick turn and friendly staffing.

Great place to stop. Many good eating places within 2 miles. They have a courtesy car and good fuel prices.

I flew in on the Sunday after Thanksgiving to pick up some family members. I refueled at the SS pumps (good price) and when I went to start up my right engine would do nothing. I discovered the lub on the battery cable to the right started was broken. I went to the FBO and asked if there was a mechanic on call. They had a mechanic there within 15 minutes (I believe his name was Paul) and he had me on my way in less than an hour. Great service anytime but especially on a holiday weekend. Thanks for the great service.

Very nice field. Great service with parking from an Auburn, no doubt, student with his bright orange shirt. Friendly staff with a "hometown" atmosphere. The building is 'dated' no doubt, but has warmth that you don't find at many fields anymore. Beautiful area as you are approaching the airport. Keep up the good work, folks!!!

Stopped at KAUO for a quick fuel stop. No one showed up to help us park the airplane . . . And, of course, we parked in someone's reserved spot. However, people there were very friendly and helpful. Although not the best airport out there (facilities are old and taxiway pretty rough), I would go there again without any reservations.

After reading the comments, I was concerned about stopping here but decided to anyway because it worked for my flight plan. I was very pleasantly surprised -- the facilities are as good as most airports I stop at, and they have a WSI weather computer for flight planning. Nice folks -- we were marshaled in and parked; they had the plane tied down before I could get the bags unloaded. They let us use the courtesy car overnight, which saved us cab fare to the hotel. Overall a great experience, we'll be back.
