Crystal Aero Group

at Crystal River Airport

From Carlos Riquezes on 30-Jul-2008

In the past few days I needed to go to KCGC twice. My experience as a pilot and as a customer was great. Since you land the people from Crystal Aero Group give you directions to park your airplane and this is only to start. The customer service that I receive was exceptional and the place is very nice maintained with a very good pilot shop. If this airport is in your route, take a look, you will be very glad to been there

I was on my first solo cross country from St Pete to Crystal River. Upon landling at Crystal River, I decided to take a quick break before returning. I went to do my run-up and had a mag drop of over 350 rpm with a backfire on my right mag. They were awesome in helping me cleanout the spark plugs right away so that I could take off with no mag drop and not end up in the mid-day Florida turbulent weather for my return trip. I can't thank them enough for the help and saving the day on my first solo cross country.

Flew in here for lunch. Called on Unicom for directions to park and was told to pick any place. Went to Dairy Queen and had lunch and came back with no parking or ramp fee for a 172. Great experience for a little airport.

Great and friendly airport, we flew there to eat at a little restaurant called "The Olive Tree". Located a three-minute walk north thru the main gate. Try the GYRO, its worth the ride, and they are open seven days a week. The # is 352-563-0075 of the restaurant.

Nice location flew in yesterday no courtesy car available. It was just before 7pm, and they were closing. Attendant handed me a list of taxi companies, locked up and left. They seem to take advantage of the tourist traffic. Why anybody would pay their fuel prices is beyond me. I got 100LL for $3.09 at KCHN here it was $4.50.

Nice little airport and FBO with an excellent selection of pilot supplies, etc. Mechanic associated with FBO is very knowledgeable and helpful. Use of courtesy car partially offsets their relatively higher price on 100LL. Choice of regular runway or grass (make sure it didn't rain during last few days if landing on grass 18/36).

Stopped in for fuel and found a nice FBO. Prices a little on the high side but I've paid more. Great range of pilot supplies. Bought all the maps and plates I needed in one shot!

Flew in to CGC to dive with the manatees. Arrived 10pm and Best Western would not come. A call to Plantation Inn worked and in 10 min. they were there to pick us up. They also took us to Applebee's and came and got us after the meal. What service. The call to the taxi service was an answering machine. FBO courteous on departure. SS Fuel at X35 much less expensive.

I flew into CGC for the second time this year for fuel and to stretch my legs on the way to Key West. I found this FBO to be extremely helpful and a complement to the community. I will certainly be back again in the future.

On September 29th on our way from Palm Beach back to East Texas, we landed with a small maintenance problem. The "dipstick" had failed to replace the dipstick and we had a small oil leak. The gentleman working the desk, I'm so sorry I forgot his name, was most helpful and found us something to stop up our leaking stick receptacle. These folks could not have been more kind and helpful. They let us borrow a pickup to get something to eat. Thanks folks.
