Stopped for fuel and lunch. Terminal building is immaculate with limited cold and heat-in-the-microwave foods. Fueling is "assisted self-serve", I.E. You position the airplane in front of the tank and the attendant pumps. He loaned us the courtesy car (I put some gas in on return) for lunch at one of the funky, but decent non-chain restaurants in town. A nice place to visit.

Nice, pleasant & modern FBO. Very clean with all facilities. Only thing to watch for is crop dusting Pawnee's landing downwind on the taxiway with no radio communication!

This was one of my stops during my instrument cross-country, which was after hours. The fuel pump is a bit confusing. Just push the black button under the console to get things started. Then push it again to stop. It isn't labeled very well. I decided to make it my first stop after getting my instrument ticket. This time I was greeted by Don and got full service for the price of self-service. I was still trying to call up WX-Brief to cancel my flight plan and he was already pumping gas. I will definitely be back!
 

From Fernando Quinones on 27-Oct-2008

It was a fuel Stop I was ferrying a helo from LA to PR. Friendly guy, nice smile and positive attention at all times. It is looks like a small town to me, but with a great FBO service, Like general aviation should be. Thanks for the help. I will definitely go there again.

Clean restrooms. Inexpensive fuel ($5.10 for 100LL on 7/2/08). Decent Internet speed on two computers.
 

From Chester Jurskis on 18-Apr-2008

Stopped here coming home from Sun'n'Fun to wait for some weather. It is a great place to stop and reminds me of what General Aviation is supposed to be like. Friendly staff, Good fuel prices, courtesy car, good "family owned" restaurants in town, overall excellent amenities. They were all very helpful and accommodating. Look forward to stopping here again on my next trip to Florida.
 

From Scott Harris on 17-Jan-2008

Truly a gem of a county airport! Excellent service and a lot of features you would normally only find at a much larger airport - full service fuel at self-serve price, a crew car, friendly staff - full pilots lounge, food available, even a shower in the (very clean) bathroom. If you are traveling through this area, KCTY is a top-notch place to stop.
 

From Forrest Ward on 01-Jan-2008

Nice Fellow, I was going to have to start up and reposition from my tie down to refuel, he ran over and offered to run the fuel truck over to me. The facility is clean and has Internet access to check weather, flight plans etc. I did not take advantage of the Saturday discount, but even so, $4.10 / Gal for 100LL (01/01/08) is a good price. The runways are in pretty good shape, (a little grass was growing on the numbers on R/W 31). Everything else was perfect.
 

From Alec Thigpen on 27-Dec-2007

I stopped at Dixie Aviation twice last month on a trip to the Keys, and not only was I given a great price for full service, I got a discount the following Saturday of .25 per gallon, even though I was there an hour after the cutoff time. I didn't even ask for the discount. $3.66 a gallon is low for self-serve, but incredible for full service. I pay well over $5.00 a gallon at my home field, so I really appreciate this facility, and it will be a stop for me on every trip to south Florida. The people are great here regardless of the gas price.
 

From David Horton on 22-Dec-2007

Stopped in with my IFR instructor a few times while flying through FL and GA. Bridget was outstanding! She pumped my fuel at the SS pumps. Great place, great people. That is all.
 

From Gerry Mosley on 02-Sep-2007

Stopped on 1st and 2nd September. On 1st September, we landed during a moderate rain shower. Don met us at the plane with umbrellas!! We were fueled promptly. This has got to be the finest FBO we have stopped at in the last 20 years. I would go many miles out of my way to stop at CTY again. You just can't find a nicer facility or nicer people. Don, We will never forget your hospitality and would invite you to stay with us if you ever come to 1R7. Thanks for everything. Gerry and Lisa
 

From Don Miller on 22-May-2007

My wife and I were en route from St Petersburg's Alfred Whitted to Baxley, Ga returning from a high school graduation. CTY looked like a good choice for our first stop. Lucky guess on our part! Bridget and Don truly understand the GA business and their pilot guests. Everything about the FBO is geared to provide a warm welcome and all basic needs. Thanks to them! Anna and Don Miller, Cessna 172M.
 

From Riley Hoggard on 25-Apr-2007

Grassroots aviation at its best! A great place to land for an hour or two days as I recently did during Sun 'n Fun week. The staff was extremely helpful and even pumped the self-serve gas for the long line of waiting aircraft. As I came in after hours both days, the Unicom frequency pass code for the restrooms and the motion sensor lights were very welcome. Great place and staff! Small town airports are truly the backbone of U.S. Aviation. Stinson N97482
 

From Joe Harris on 25-Mar-2007

Recently flew my family from Chattanooga TN to the Florida Keys and stop midway in Cross City. Very good experience. The folks at Dixie Aviation greeted us at the plane each time and fueled us without delay. They have two PCs for connecting to DUAT to check weather. On the trip back from the Keys, they gave me a $0.25/gal discount that they do each Saturday morning before 1pm. Great Folks!!
 

From Don Hansen on 21-Mar-2007

A great place to stop with nice facilities and very friendly people ... EXCEPT for the cowboy's, see SAFETY comment below:
 

From Don Hansen on 20-Mar-2007

EXCEPT for crop dusters that use taxiways for landing operations and almost no radio communication. BEWARE of these people who declare in response to radio warnings " uh ... I'm a crop duster", which must give them the right to land downwind while you are on final upwind on the same runway! Had to break off approach to avoid an accident.
 

From Jack Rickard on 16-Feb-2007

Closed and abandoned at 5:00 PM on a Friday evening. Credit card terminal didn't work. A truly desolate stop. Avoid this place if you need fuel.
 

From Jerry Wade on 05-Feb-2007

KCTY was our first fuel stop returning from Key West en route to St. Louis. The facilities are nice and we were greeted with a smile and very efficient service. We would certainly recommend this as a stop if you are in the area and we plan to use them again.
 

From George Davies on 08-Jan-2007

Stopped for fuel on the way to south Fl. Did not get her name, but lady was getting the SS pumps running a couple of minutes after we shut down. An easy in and out. Told us that if we had been an hour earlier, that gas on Sat. 8 am to 1 pm is discounted .25 cents/gal.
 

From David Hill Canam Aviators on 10-Dec-2006

What an awesome place to work, flew fertilizer for about 14 days out of there. Super nice people, thank you Chris and Bridget for everything you did. Hope to see ya'll again!
